This finding supports the hypothesis that HEV infection may underlie some of the unexplained cases of liver disease in HIV-infected patients and may contribute to liver injury in this setting&#46; Although no statistically significant differences have been observed in this study&#44; this fact may have been a consequence of the limited power of the analyzed sample&#46; However&#44; the prevalence of HEV exposure was almost double in cases in comparison with controls&#46; This datum suggests that significant differences might have been reached if a larger sample had been analyzed and warrants further studies to confirm this finding&#46;</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The seroprevalence of anti-HEV found in our HIV population with normal values of liver LS was high&#44; namely 16&#37; according to the criteria used in this study&#46; This figure is higher than the seroprevalence reported in other HIV-cohorts&#44; which have ranged from 1&#46;5&#37; to 11&#46;2&#37;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5&#44;14&#8211;21</span></a> and is also greater than the seroprevalence in the general population in Spain&#44; which ranges between 0&#46;6 and 7&#46;3&#37;&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0110"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></a> Additionally&#44; the anti-HEV seroprevalence found in our study is slightly higher than the 14&#37; seroprevalence reported in a recent study conducted in 448 HIV-infected individuals in Spain&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> Although variability in the strategy and procedures for serological testing could partly explain these differences&#44; it is well documented that seroprevalence varies between countries and within countries&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span></a> which may have accounted for these differences in a great extent&#46; Further investigations should clarify if the high anti-HEV seroprevalence in HIV-infected patients with unexplained liver disease found in our study reflects a higher risk for HEV infection in this population or if&#44; alternatively&#44; HEV infection is a potential contributor to liver disease in this setting&#46;</p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our study has some limitations&#46; First&#44; as stated above&#44; is the lack of power to find significant differences&#46; However&#44; identifying HIV-infected patients without hepatitis coinfection bearing unexplained liver disease is not easy&#44; because reliable screening test as transient elastography is not routinely carried out in such a population&#46; Because of this&#44; we believe that these results are of interest&#44; even without statistically significant difference&#44; as they may prompt specific multicentric studies with larger sample sizes to be undertaken&#46; The relevance that HEV may have as cause of unexplained liver disease in the HIV infection clearly justify these studies&#46; Second&#44; the serological diagnosis of HEV is not well standardized and lacks of a current widely accepted definition for HEV exposure&#46; However&#44; we have used several assays for the detection of anti-HEV antibodies and stringent criteria for minimizing variability in procedure results&#44; including a confirmatory immunoblot test&#44; also used by other experts&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span></a> Additionally&#44; the persistence of anti-HEV antibodies in the mid- and long-term is not completely known&#46; Consequently&#44; this and all previously published cross-sectional studies looking at the prevalence of anti-HEV antibodies may underestimate previous exposure to HEV due to loss of antibodies over time&#46; Finally&#44; although cases and controls were matched by relevant factors such as age&#44; sex and CD4 count&#44; the small sample size precluded us to include other matching factors as alcohol consumption or exposure to certain antiretroviral drugs as didanosine&#46;</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In summary&#44; although this study should be considered preliminary&#44; according to its results&#44; previous HEV infection seems to be more frequent among HIV-infected patients with unexplained liver disease and it may be involved in the development of the latter disorder&#46; On the contrary&#44; active chronic hepatitis E is rare in this setting&#44; but rapid progression to cirrhosis is a concern&#46; Chronic hepatitis E should be considered in any HIV-infected patients with unexplained abnormal liver function tests&#44; including abnormal LS&#44; as effective treatment of HEV may induce reversal of liver injury&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a></p></span><span id="sec0050" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0105">Conflict of interest</span><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">None&#46;</p></span><span id="sec0045" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0110">Funding</span><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This work was partly supported by the <span class="elsevierStyleGrantSponsor" id="gs1">Red de Investigaci&#243;n en SIDA</span> &#40;<span class="elsevierStyleGrantNumber" refid="gs1">ISCIII-RETIC RD06&#47;006</span> and <span class="elsevierStyleGrantNumber" refid="gs1">ISCIII-RETIC RD12&#47;0017</span>&#41;
