The prevalence of 3 serological markers of hepatitis B virus was studied in a sample population of 481 men between the ages of 40 and 60 examined in the course of a routine medical checkup, whose acknowledged intake of pure alcohol was under 120 g per day. No statistically significant relationship was found between the frequency of the markers (HBs antigen, anti-HBs and anti-HBc antibodies) and the level of acknowledged alcohol consumption. The frequencies of the major potential risk factors in hepatitis B virus infection were similar among patients claiming to drink less than 20 g per day and those claiming an intake of between 20 and 80 g daily. Finally, the activities of some of the plasma enzymes most frequent in hepatology increased in a statistically significant way with acknowledged consumption of alcohol--this, in the absence of any contact with hepatitis B virus. No relationship was shown between enzyme levels and the presence--or absence--of hepatitis B markers, whatever the acknowledged alcohol consumption.
