BACKGROUND: Due to the rise in the number of deaths, the hepatitis C virus remains a public health issue worldwide. During the recovery period, cytokines are known as indicators of chronic liver infection.AIM: In this study, immunological parameters were measured and calculated in chronic hemodialysis patients after more than 6 months of drug administration.METHODS: We have picked 60 patients with hemodialysis who are anti-HCV positive. ELISA and the calculation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were used to evaluate IP-10 and IFN-γ.RESULTS: A substantial association between variables and infected cases was found. No worth was considered for genders or age categories.CONCLUSIONS: The serum IP-10 level can be a warning primarily for patients who have taken a variety of prescriptions intermittently. In both the RPT and RST cohorts, IFN-γ serum levels are usually elevated. Serum level ALP is not a particular chronic HCV predictor.
