متن کاملHemochromatosis Gene Polymorphism as a Predictor of Sustained Virological Response to Antiviral Treatment in Egyptian Chronic Hepatitis C Patients
Aim The aim of this article is to assess HFE C282Y gene mutations as a predictor of sustained virological response (SVR) to anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment in Egyptian patients. Materials and methods One hundred and forty chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients were divided into two groups: 70 patients achieved SVR and 70 patients were nonresponders (NRs). All patients were subjected to qua...
متن کاملHepatitis C reinfection after sustained virological response.
BACKGROUND & AIMS On-going risk behaviour can lead to hepatitis C virus (HCV) reinfection following successful treatment. We aimed to assess the incidence of persistent HCV reinfection in a population of people who inject drugs (PWID) who had achieved sustained virological response (SVR) seven years earlier. METHODS In 2004-2006 we conducted a multicentre treatment trial comprising HCV genoty...

متن کاملClinical utility of hepatitis B surface antigen levels during the natural history and treatment of chronic hepatitis B infection
INTRODUCTION Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) level quantitation may be helpful for understanding the natural history of the disease and its response to treatment. AIM To determine the serum HBsAg levels during the different phases of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection and HBsAg levels of patients who are on treatment with oral antiviral drugs. MATERIAL AND METHODS PATIENTS WERE CATEGOR...
متن کاملSustained response after a 2-year course of lamivudine treatment of hepatitis B e antigen-negative chronic hepatitis B.
Lamivudine has demonstrated efficacy for the treatment of hepatitis B e antigen-negative chronic hepatitis B (e-CHB). However, treatment withdrawal after 1 year has been associated with a high rate of relapse while long-term treatment is associated with increasing risks of drug resistance. We report our treatment experience of 50 Chinese-Canadian patients with e-CHB. All patients received lamiv...
