This study found that COVID-19 patients coinfected with HBV at the HBeAg (+) CHB/infection stage have an increased risk of poor prognosis. Abnormal liver function partially mediates this increased risk of poor prognosis caused by the coinfection.
Introduction This study aimed to determine whether there is a difference in the risk of death/critical illness between different stages of hepatitis B virus (HBV) (resolved hepatitis B, HBeAg (-) chronic hepatitis B [CHB]/infection, HBeAg (+) CHB/infection, and HBV reactivation) coinfected with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19); and if there is a difference, whether it is due to abnormal liver function and to what extent. Methods This cohort study included all COVID-19 inpatients of a single-center tertiary care academic hospital in Wuhan, Hubei, China, between February 4, 2020, and follow-up to April 14, 2020. A total of 2899 patients with COVID-19 were included as participants in this study, and they were divided into five groups based on hepatitis B infection status. Follow-up was conducted for mortality and ICU admission during hospitalization. Results The median follow-up time was 39 days (IQR, 30-50), with 66 deaths and 126 ICU admissions. After adjustment, compared with patients without CHB, the hazard ratio (HR) for ICU admission was 1.86 (95% CI: 1.05-3.31) for patients with HBeAg (+) CHB/infection. The HR for death was 3.19 (95% CI: 1.62-6.25) for patients with HBeAg (+) CHB/infection. The results for the mediating effect indicated that the total effect of HBeAg (+) CHB/infection on death/ICU stay was partially mediated by abnormal liver function, which accounted for 79.60% and 73.53%, respectively. Conclusion Patients with COVID-19 coinfected with HBV at the HBeAg (+) CHB/infection stage have an increased risk of poor prognosis, and abnormal liver function partially mediates this increased risk of poor prognosis caused by the coinfection.
