Depression could make the treatment outcome worse. However, up to now, no objective methods were developed to diagnose depression in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected patients. Therefore, the dual metabolomic platforms were used here to identify potential biomarkers for diagnosing HBV-infected patients with depression (dHB).
