Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV)b infection is a major public health problem, affecting over 2.7 million individuals in the U.S. and over 170 million worldwide [1, 2]. In the United States, HCV infection is the most common cause of chronic liver disease, accounts for 8,000 to 10,000 deaths annually, and is the leading indication for liver transplantation [3]. Since the initial discovery of HCV v...
Background: Treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with recently introduced direct-acting antiviral agents (DAA) is effective and safe, however there is little known regarding safety and efficacy of generic DAAs in the real-life clinical setting. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of generic sofosbuvir/ledipasvir (SOF/LDV) in a real-life clinical experience. Methods: ...
People with hemophilia were formerly at very high risk of infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Approximately 20% of HCVinfected patients spontaneously clear the virus. To identify correlates of spontaneous clearance of HCV, we studied a cohort of HCV-infected hemophilic subjects without human immunodeficiency virus infection who had never been treated with interferon. Plasma HCV RNA was pers...
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of acute hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is imprecise because antibody testing does not differentiate between acute and chronic infection. Although virologic features, such as viral load fluctuations and low levels of viremia, have been noted to be characteristic of acute HCV infection, these parameters have not been used for diagnosis. METHODS We validated the use ...
Antibody responses to the GOR autoepitope are frequently detected among anti-hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV)-positive patients with chronic hepatitis. Sera from 110 anti-HCV-negative patients with occult HCV infection, as diagnosed by detection of HCV RNA in hepatic tissue, were investigated for GOR antibody reactivity. A positive test for anti-GOR immunoglobulin G (IgG) was found for 22 (20%) of ...
normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: hepatitis c virus (hcv) is the main causative agent of post-transfusion hepatitis. the virus is distributed worldwide with varying prevalence in different countries, which could easily lead to chronic infections, cirrhosis, and even hepatocellular carcinoma. the aim of this study was to investigate prevalence of hcv infection and its tre...
We evaluated uptake and diagnostic outcomes of voluntary hepatitis B (HBV) and C virus (HCV) screening offered during routine tuberculosis entry screening to migrants in Gelderland and Amsterdam, the Netherlands, between 2013 and 2015. In Amsterdam, HIV screening was also offered. Overall, 54% (461/859) accepted screening. Prevalence of chronic HBV infection (HBsAg-positive) and HCV exposure (a...
Background: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) have been involved in impaired immunity and may have a pivotal role in persistence of viral infections. Objective: To develop a simple and reliable in-house three color flow cytometery of peripheral blood to understand the role of HCV infection in the increase of Tregs. Methods: The level of naturally occurring CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells (nTregs) i...
BACKGROUND Hepatitis C virus (HCV) leads to chronic infection in 70%-85% of exposed patients. Spontaneous clearance of the virus after chronic infection is believed to occur rarely. METHODS Alaska Natives who tested positive for HCV antibodies were enrolled in a prospective study that began in 1994 and were followed up on a regular basis. Individuals who tested positive for HCV RNA on 3 separ...
