Filter by:To evaluate the efficacy of a new screening for infectious diseases: tuberculosis, HIV, HBV and HCV, based on risk factors questionnaires (TB screen for tuberculosis and TROD screen for HIV and hepatitis) amongst a population of legal migrants during their mandatory medical check-up. This study aims for a global improvement of screening and care for migrants.
Portal hypertension is a common pathology in chronic liver disease, particularly in liver cirrhosis. Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) is one of most etiologies of liver cirrhosis in China. The basic reason for portal hypertension in HBV is the largely deposition of hepatic extracellular matrixes which causes high pressure in liver vessels. One of the most common symptoms of cirrhotic portal hypertension is gastroesophageal varices.The effective inhibition of HBV can partially stop or reverse liver fibrosis in patients with chronic Hepatitis and liver cirrhosis due to HBV and the anti-fibrotic strategy focusing on the regulation of hepatic extracellular matrix may have a great benefit. Therefore, antivirals therapy is also a basic treatment for low-grade cirrhotic portal hypertension. Fuzheng Huayu has been found to enhance the degradation of collagens in fibrotic liver and have a good action against liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B. However, there are no high quality clinical evidences which can demonstrate if the combination of anti-viral and anti-fibrotic therapy can relieve the pressure of liver vessels and decline incidence rate and bleeding rate of gastroesophageal varices.
Biochemical response of primary biliary cholangitis-autoimmune hepatitis overlap syndrome induced by ursodeoxycholic acid only or combination therapy of immunosuppressive agents
The goals of this clinical study are to compare the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of study drug, tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), versus placebo in teens and children with CHB and to learn more about the dosing levels in children.
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is an autoimmune chronic liver disease, characterised by destruction of the small intrahepatic bile ducts. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is the first line treatment for patients with PBC. However, up to 40% of patients respond inadequate to this treatment. sCD163 is a macrophage activation marker shedded into plasma by macrophages in the liver. sMR is a soluble mannose receptor. The investigators want to investigate whether sCD163 and sMR can predict response to treatment with UDCA in newly diagnosed patients with PBC.
HBsAg Loss/Seroconversion is uncommon in Low replicative chronic HBV infection patients. The purpose of this study is to investigate the ability of peginterferon alpha to achieve HBsAg loss/seroconversion therapy in Low replicative chronic HBV infection patients with Low Level HBsAg.
Direct acting antivirals offer a new opportunity to monitor the immune response in Hepatitis C infection. In this study cytokine markers will be measured during therapy up to time point SVR 12 an correlated to clinical Parameters and regular laboratory findings.
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is a serious liver disease worldwide，HBV MTCT is the important reason to keep high prevalence of chronic HBV infection in China. Intrapartum infection is the main period of neonatal HBV infection. Injecting HBIG and hepatitis b vaccine immediately after birth is the most important method of blocking mother-to-child transmission of HBV. However, regular doses of HBIG combined with hepatitis b vaccine blocking measures still have a failure rate as high as 5% ~ 15%.There are numerous studies to explore pregnancy women with HBV positive, especially high viral load of those women during pregnancy being treated with nucleoside analogs to increase the blocking rate of HBV MTCT, but there is still a failure rate of 2.2% to 18%. In this study, we will explore the efficiency of personalized blocking method of HBV maternal-neonatal transmission in high-risk newborns,according to the venous blood HBsAg state of neonatus at birth.
This trial will study the effect of a polyherbal capsule in lowering the viral load of patients with chronic Hepatitis B infection and record the incidence of from Hepatitis B surface antigen elimination in 12 months
HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with low Level HBsAg and with a history of drug resistance or suboptimal/partial virological response were enrolled. After giving informed consent, patients were treated with nucleoside analog(s) (NAs) once a day and weekly subcutaneous injections of alfa-2a 180 micrograms/week or peginterferon alfa-2b 80 micrograms/week for 12 weeks. 12 weeks later, NAs was stopped, patients were treated with weekly subcutaneous injections of alfa-2a 180 micrograms/week or peginterferon alfa-2b 80 micrograms/week. Treatment endpoint was HBsAg loss(＜0.05 IU/mL).
