Abstract:【Objectives】To investigate the clinical efficacy of entecavir combined with silibinin in the treatment of patients with viral hepatitis B (CHB) complicated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its impact on liver function. 【Methods】A total of 104 patients with CHB and NAFLD admitted to our hospital from June 2021 to January 2023 were selected and divided into the control group (treated with entecavir in addition to conventional treatment) and the observation group (treated with silibinin in addition to conventional treatment) according to the treatment method, with 52 patients in each group. Two groups were compared in terms of clinical efficacy, liver function [alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), tumor marker alpha fetoprotein (AFP)], liver fibrosis indicators [laminin (LN), type Ⅲ procollagen (PC-Ⅲ), type Ⅳ collagen (Ⅳ-C), hyaluronic acid (HA)], inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB)]. 【Results】The total effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). After treatment, ALT, AST, and AFP levels in both groups were lower than before treatment, and the observation group was lower than the control group (P<0.05); The serum levels of LN, PC-Ⅲ,Ⅳ-C, and HA in both groups were lower than before treatment, and the observation group was lower than the control group (P<0.05); The serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, and NF-κB in both groups were lower than before treatment, and the observation group was lower than the control group (P<0.05).【Conclusion】 The combination of entecavir and silibinin in the treatment of CHB patients with NAFLD can improve liver function, reduce inflammatory response, and alleviate the progression of liver fibrosis.
