Untreated North American HBV patients with mild liver disease report favourable health-related quality of life and minimal symptoms. HBV does not impact health-related quality of life unless advanced liver disease or comorbidities are present. High symptom burden explains substantial variation in health-related quality of life. (CT.gov identifier: NCT01263587).
