Filter by:Given the disproportionately high risk of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in the baby boomer cohort, population-based screening has been demonstrated cost effective. Compared to point-of-care testing, however, bulk health messages with coupled lab requisitions delivered directly to patients meeting screening criteria via patient portals could improve HCV screening at minimal cost.
With 2.5% prevalence in general population, Pakistan is an intermediate endemicity country for hepatitis B. However, wide disparity exists across the country as disease prevalence in general population soars as high as 14% in hyper endemic areas. This hyper endemicity increases the risk of acquiring infection via vertical and horizontal routes of disease transmission. National immunization schedule in Pakistan administers the first vaccine against hepatitis B at 6th week after infant birth. Owing to this 6 week interlude the existing immunization schedule may not provide adequate protection to a newborn against the disease. A monovalent hepatitis B vaccination shot, administered within 12 hours of birth, is the preferred strategy for disease control in hyper endemic areas. The National Immunization Technical Advisory Groups around the world are expected to use rigorous scientific evidence and make changes in the immunization schedule and vaccine dosage, responding to the evolving epidemiology of childhood diseases. Such research on local evidence for hepatitis B vaccine in Pakistan is not available and our research fills this gap by This research studied the hepatitis B vaccine response, in two cohorts of healthy infants. An open labeled, randomized controlled, non-inferiority, vaccine trial methodology was used. Margin of non non-inferiority (Δ) was set at 5%. The trial administered hepatitis B birth dose as an intervention and vaccination done under the national immunization schedule was taken as standard of care.
Current clinical practices has shown promising prospects of the therapy strategy of interferon combined with nucleos(t)ides in patients with chronic hepatitis B, but the safety and efficacy has not been fully studied. This study is aimed to exploit the safety and efficacy of the study drug, Peginterferon alfa-2b injection, with nucleos(t)ide (NAs), tenofovir disoproxil fumarate tablets (TDF), in the patients with hepatitis B, who has previously treated with nucleos(t)ides and who are treatment naïve.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the major cause of chronic liver disease and has a long-term resultant complications4 and it considered as a major endemic medical health problem in Egypt. It affects multiple organs and reflect various manifestations on oral cavity.The purpose of this study is to assess the prevalence of oral mucosa conditions, type of oral manifestation and gingival lesions in patients with hepatitis C
A prospective historically controlled study to assess the effect of an intervention integrating point-of-care hepatitis C (HCV) RNA testing, non-invasive liver fibrosis assessment, fast-tracked direct-acting antiviral (DAA) prescription, and linkage to hepatitis care (a 'one-stop-shop' intervention), on the proportion of participants initiating DAA therapy among people who are recently incarcerated within reception correctional centre(s) in Australia.
Primary Objective: To determine the P1101 pharmacokinetic (PK) profile at the single dose of 400 μg.
The aims of this study are to evaluate liver fibrosis with two-dimensional (2D) shear wave elastography (SWE) technique in inactive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) carriers and patients with active chronic hepatitis B (CHB), with the help of a propagation map, compare this method with histopathological results in patients with CHB and determine the suitability of 2D-SWE for use instead of liver biopsy by evaluating fibrosis before and after treatment.
Modulation of the renin angiotensin system by the chronic hepatitis C virus treatment either by (Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir), (Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir plus Ribavirin), or (Ribavirin and Interferon) protocols could give an explanation for the low incidence of COVID-19 among Egyptian population. Adding it may play a role in COVID 19 prophylaxis.
This is an open label, randomized, parallel-group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combination treatment BRII-835 (VIR-2218) and BRII-179 (VBI-2601) in adult participants with chronic HBV infection
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), listed among lung and breast cancers as the top-ten cancer in 2016 Taiwan, is the second most prevalent cancer, just one place below colon cancer. Due to mass hepatitis B vaccination and the screening and therapeutic plan against hepatitis B and C viruses (HBV and HCV, respectively), the incidence of liver cancer drops significantly, however, still around twenty out of per hundred thousand population die from liver cancer each year. For patients suffering HBV and HCV, the prevention of HCC is a crucial health issue.
