Abstract bronic hepatsi B i a erious problem worldwide. Among patients with active viral replication, cirrhosis will develop in 15 to 20% within five year (Rosman e( al., 2007). For patient with cirrho is acute exac rbation can OCCUI, the disease may progre s, and the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma is greatly increased (701090% of cases of hepatocellular carcinoma occur against a background of cirrhosis. B cause of thesecomplications five-year survival rates may be as low as ::% for patient ltimately, 40% of Asian men with chronic h patitis B die of either complications of cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma (Liaw etal; 2004). lth ugh heparin B viru infection is beli ved t be declining in gypt since the 70’11 (Kahi!et al., 1990). yet still represent a major public health problem and it is e timated that 400 million people worldwid are chronically infected with hepariti B irus (HB\! with- 1_5 million hepatitis Bcarriers ill the U A, of which ]5% to 40% are at ri k of developing serious sequelae including cirrho iis, hepatic decompensation and h patocellular carcinoma (Bee). This risk is e pecially high in tho e with high level of viral replication (Singh and Refill, 2008). The next be t alternative i Sl rained ’lppre sion of HE\ replication.

Introduction Heart failure is: common medical problem” it is the main cau e of hospital admission ill elderly individuals and represents the commonest diagnosis in cardiac patients. AD and its complications account for twothird to three fourths in all case of HF. The progressive nature of HF reflects the progressive nature of underlying AD (Andrews et al: 1997). The term ischemic cardiomyopathy is used for the clinical syndrome in which coronary artery diseases result in left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure symptoms (Felker et al., 2002). The restorationof coronary patency of non acute occluded coronary arteries is associated with a small but significant improvement in regional and global left enrricular function, e peciaily in patient ’.: irh recent occlu ion and depres ed left ventricular Junction. In spite of significant effect 011 long term patency, stenting of non acute coronary occlusion doesn’t result in significantly better left ventricular function compared with balloon angiopla ty (DZUI,jk V. et al., 1994). Improvement In left ventricular fun tion after acute myocardial infarction is linked to early lind sustained infarct artery patency (Lamas et al., J995J- Left ventricular function may also improve after revascularization of non acute coronary occlusion {G”,.,ot et al; 1996). Left ntricular function may improve after rex ascnlarization of non acute coronary ocelu ion; however, the magnitude and consistency of improvement in this setting are not well characterized (Pix,etti et al. |
