ABSTRACT:
INTRODUCTION: Chronic hepatitis C is a viral infection frequently associated with metabolic alterations, especially peripheral insulin resistance (IR). Interferon, a widely used treatment, can interfere with glucose metabolism, worsening IR and compromising sustained virological response (SVR). Therefore, understanding this relationship is fundamental for the development of therapeutic strategies. OBJECTIVES: To analyze the metabolic effects of interferon on the induction of IR in individuals with chronic hepatitis C and its possible influence on SVR.
