Therefore, applying a multiple regression we found that fasting glucose at baseline influenced the entity of fibrotic regression (ΔStiffness expressed in ΔKPa) (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#tbl0010">Table 2</a>). In particular, patients with high glycemia (fasting glucose > 110<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mg/dl) showed a significantly lower regression when compared to patients with fasting glucose < 110<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mg/dl (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0015">Figure 3</a>A). Moreover, the baseline values of HbA1c of diabetic patients strongly correlated with ΔStiffness (expressed in ΔkPa or Δ%) (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0015">Figure 3</a>B, C). Therefore, hyperglycaemia negatively affected liver fibrosis regression as high fasting glucose and high HbA1c were associated to poorer or absent stiffness improvement. Another important observation was that 7 (4.2%) patients developed HCC during post-SVR follow-up. None of these presented stiffness regression, so that 6 patients remained scored as F4 and one subject worsened form F3 to F4 (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0020">Figure 4</a>A). In addition, the increase of platelets amount was not significant (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0020">Figure 4</a>B).

The high rate of SVR (>95%) and the well documented improvement of hepatic and extrahepatic manifestations make treatment with DAAs feasible in all HCV infected patients. On the other hand, not all the patients benefit from the treatment (e.g. fibrosis regression) and since the high cost of these drugs, the decision to provide the therapy becomes a political issue. In this study, we retrospectively investigated the putative interactions of hepatic stiffness with other anthropometric and biochemical parameters, in order to predict liver fibrosis course after viral eradication. To do this, we used ARFI elastography, which has been demonstrated being a reliable technique for fibrosis evaluation and follow-up in CHC patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0215"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13–15</span></a> In line with previous studies, DAAs therapy was successful to improve hepatic stiffness and other correlated parameters such as liver enzymes, platelets count and APRI.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0160"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2,10–15</span></a> Intriguingly, also the TC and LDL cholesterol, which showed a direct correlation with baseline stiffness, significantly increased at SVR24.

The overall improvement of clinical status is clear and therefore the benefits of DAAs are incontrovertible, however a pool of patients did not show improvement of hepatic stiffness and a part of these even developed HCC. A recent study reported that hepatic steatosis affects stiffness regression,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0240"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span></a> while elevated BMI negatively impacts platelets count recover in subjects with advanced fibrosis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0245"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> Our analysis instead, showed that high fasting glucose (>110<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mg/dl) is negatively associated with SVR24 stiffness regression. Moreover, values of HbA1c strongly correlated with ΔStiffness, underlining the negative impact of decompensated diabetes on liver fibrosis improvement. Type 2 diabetes is probably the most frequent extrahepatic manifestation in HCV infected people<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0250"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">20,21</span></a> and insulin resistance has been associated to SVR low rate in patients treated with IFN/ribavirin.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0260"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></a> We acknowledge that diabetic patients might present hepatic steatosis with an overestimation of liver stiffness. However, we included steatosis ultrasound grade as confounding factor in the analysis, showing that only hyperglycaemia was significantly associated to poorer stiffness regression. In addition, ARFI has been demonstrated to be more reliable than Fibroscan in detection of advanced fibrosis in obese and steatotic patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0265"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span></a> Moreover, diabetes is a known risk factor for HCC development,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0270"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span></a> and a recent Italian study, which reported a higher HCC occurrence in DAAs ribavirin-free regimens, showed that diabetes remains a risk factor even post-SVR.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0275"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span></a> In fact, diabetes is a state of chronic inflammation where insulin resistance and hyperglycaemia fuel tumorigenesis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0280"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">26</span></a> Accordingly, in our cohort 7 patients (4.2%) developed HCC during post-SVR follow-up. They did not present stiffness regression nor platelets count recover and interestingly, baseline glucose was significantly higher than non-HCC developers, despite acknowledging the limit of sample numerosity. The role of DAAs in HCC incidence is still debated. We believe that patients with advanced fibrosis should be carefully screened, especially if they do not reach outcomes like liver fibrosis regression, although as shown by Pons M et al., a persisting stiffness ≥ 20 KPa at follow-up is not the lonely predictor factor of HCC.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0285"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">27</span></a> Moreover, it is needed to pay attention to diabetic subjects as they are candidate for persisting hepatic inflammation and hence HCC. In 2011 a study revealed cirrhotic patients with diabetes presented a lower incidence rate of HCC if treated with metformin.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0290"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">28</span></a> Other studies demonstrate benefits of metformin in HCC, but we do not know whether the effect is due to direct antitumorigenic properties or to insulin sensitization.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0295"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">29,30</span></a></p></span><span id="sec0045" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0105">Conclusions</span><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In conclusion our analysis showed overall benefits of viral eradication with DAAs on hepatic stiffness and hepatitis hallmarks, but also a clear association of hyperglycaemia with persisting hepatic stiffness and probably cancer development.
