BACKGROUND Many studies have estimated the prevalence of anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody among hemodialysis (HD) patients; however, the prevalence of HCV core antigen-which indicates the presence of chronic HCV infection-is not known. METHODS Standardized prevalence ratios (SPRs) for anti-HCV antibody and HCV core antigen among HD patients (n = 1214) were calculated on the basis of data...
Background and purpose : Health care workers (HCW,s) are at increased risk of hepatitis viruses infection .Seroprevalence rates of hepatitis B and C viruses ( HBV,HCV) are higher among HCWs .Universal precautions to prevent the transmission of infections during medical cares along with vaccination are recommended or even mandatory in most countries. The purpose of this study was to determine ...
One hundred thirty-one patients followed at the New England Hemophilia Center (Worcester, MA) were tested for antibody to hepatitis C virus (HCV). All but two had used factor concentrate that had not undergone viral inactivation; two patients had used only cryoprecipitate. The overall prevalence of HCV antibody positivity was 76.3%. There was no significant difference in age or the amount of no...
Background & Objectives: Hepatitis type G virus (HGV) is a flavivirus with RNA genome which has high nucleotide and amino acid similarity with HCV. HGV can infect blood lymphocytes for long period and may have role in inducing or complicating the clinical outcomes in patients with hematological malignancies. Therefore in this study the prevalence of HGV, HCV, and HBV infections were evaluated i...
aim : this study was designed to evaluate the frequency of antibody against these viruses in individuals attending the endoscopy ward of taleghani hospital tehran, iran. background : blood-borne viruses such as hepatitis b and hepatitis c virus and htlv-1 virus are among the world’s public health problems. hepatitis viruses cause liver problems and htlv-1 infection can lead to adult t-cell lymp...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a challenge to prevent and treat because of the rapid development of drug resistance and escape. Viral entry is required for initiation, spread, and maintenance of infection, making it an attractive target for antiviral strategies. METHODS Using genetic immunization, we produced four monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the HCV host ent...
Background. We tested the prevalence and impact of HCV seropositivity among Egyptian patients referred for coronary angiography. Subjects and Methods. This cross-sectional study was conducted in Zagazig University hospitals including 509 patients scheduled for elective coronary angiography between June 2013 and June 2014. By taking full history on admission, laboratory workup including HCV Ab, ...
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) often causes a persistent infection associated with hypergammaglobulinemia, high levels of antiviral antibody and circulating immune complexes, and immune complex disease. We previously reported that only a limited neutralizing activity to vesicular stomatitis virus or HCV pseudotype is generated in animals immunized with recombinant HCV envelope proteins and chronically...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of antibodies to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV), and of hepatitis B surface (HBs) antigen in commercial sex workers (CSW) who attended a sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinic in Tokyo. METHODS Surveys were conducted on 308 CSW and 384 control subjects for HIV antibody or 241 control subjects f...
BACKGROUND We implemented and evaluated a large health system-wide hepatitis C virus (HCV) screening and linkage to care program for persons born between 1945 and 1965 ("baby boomers"). METHODS An electronic health record (EHR) clinical decision support (CDS) tool for HCV screening for baby boomers was introduced in August 2015 for patients seen in the outpatient University of California, Los...
