Dynamics of hepatitis C viremia.
To the Editor—The recent report of Yasui et al. [1] describing the dynamics of hepatitis C viremia following interferon-a administration contains some intriguing information regarding the ratio of core protein to hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA. First, there are very few laboratories that can measure the concentration of HCV core protein in serum. Thus, the information provided in table 1 of [1], g...

متن کاملHepatitis B viremia in completely immunized individuals negative for anti-hepatitis B core antibody
The presence of anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) core antibody (anti-HBc) is considered a sensitive lifetime marker of HBV infection. Here, we examined this dogma by investigating the prevalence of hepatitis B viremia in anti-HBc negative complete vaccines in Taiwan.A total of 795 participants (1.7-20.0 years old) had completed HBV vaccination in infancy and were anti-HBc negative. Serum samples we...
متن کاملHepatitis E Virus Seroprevalence and Viremia in Hemodialysis and HIV Infected Patients in Iran
Background and Aims: Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is usually a self-limited viral disease that causes acute hepatitis and may progress to chronic hepatitis in immunosuppressed individuals. It seems that hemodialysis patients and HIV infected people are more exposed to HEV infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the extent of HEV infection in hemodialysis and HIV infected patients ...
متن کاملWhat is the reason of elevated alanine aminotransferase level in HBeAg negative patients with low viremia: NAFLD or chronic hepatitis?
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels with negative hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA by hybridization is a common problem in Turkey where is a mild endemic region. We aimed to evaluate the causes of elevated ALT levels in patients who are negative for hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and HBV DNA (by hybridization) for at least 6 months. PATIENTS-METHODS Forty-nine ...
