Filter by:Globally, about 248 million people are chronic HBV surface antigen carriers, and about 5% of them also had hepatitis delta virus (HDV) infection as well. The prevalence of HBsAg in Egypt is intermediate (2-7%) . Hepatitis D virus (HDV) is an incomplete RNA virus that needs hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) to help its replication. HDV is considered a subviral particle because it depends on HBV for its propagation. Combined HDV- HBV infection produces more severe liver affection than HBV alone. HDV infection leads to both of acute and chronic liver illnesses. Acute HDV infection can occur at the same time with acute HBV infection (coinfection) or can be superimposed on the top of chronic HBV infection. About 20% to 30% of coinfections of HDV and HBV in humans develop fatal fulminant hepatitis versus 2% of patients with acute hepatitis B mono-infection. Worldwide, Hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection present in more than 15 million people and it is endemic in the Middle East . In Upper Egypt, data about the prevalence, clinical, laboratory and virological characters of Hepatitis D virus-infected patients is rare. This study aims were: 1. To estimate the prevalence of hepatitis D virus infection among HBsAg positive individuals. 2. To determine the clinical, laboratory and virological characters of HDV infected patients.
The project will evaluate cost and treatment outcomes of a simplified Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) testing, treatment and care model integrated with HIV testing and treatment among key affected populations in Ukraine.
The main purpose of the study is to compare the acceptance and viability of three strategies aimed to screen hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in a birth cohort by: a) invitation letter offering HCV screening with dried blood spot (DBS) testing at the primary care center, b) invitation letter offering both HCV and colorectal cancer (CCR) screening with faecal occult test (FOT) at the primary care center, and c) invitation letter offering self-collected screening at home for HCV and CCR.
This study assesses the impact of a hepatitis C care coordination program on rates of linkage to hepatitis C care following release from New York City jails. Adult patients (age 18 years and above) with chronic Hepatitis C infection at Bellevue Hospital Center 19 North prison clinic from July 1, 2015 through December 31, 2016 will be offered participation in a transitional care coordination program. The rates of linkage of these individuals following release from jail will be compared to a historical cohort of adult patients with chronic Hepatitis C infection at the 19 North prison clinic from January 1, 2014 through June 31, 2015.
The study aims to evaluate 13 different HCV RDTs (10 on-market, 3 under development) for their diagnostic performance and operational characteristics in archived EDTA plasma samples, originating from patients from different geographical regions (Nigeria, Georgia, Cambodia, Belgium) and with or without HIV co-infection.

Content, biochemical indicators, coagulation function and routine data. Content, biochemical indicators, coagulation function and routine data. Observe patient demographic data, HBV DNA HBV DNAHBV DNAHBV DNA HBV DNA content, HBsAg/HBsAg/HBsAg/HBsAg/HBsAg/anti-HBsHBsHBs, HBeAg/HBeAg/HBeAg/HBeAg/HBeAg/HBeAg/anti-HBe HBe content, biochemical indicators, coagulation Correlation between function and routine, coagulation function and conventional indicators and liver histological changes. Explore the relevance of effective diagnosis of liver changes. To explore the characteristics of clinical indicators that can effectively diagnose liver histopathological changes, and to provide clinical indicators for patients with chronic hepatitis B to receive timely treatment of histopathological changes, and provide important evidence for patients with chronic hepatitis B to receive timely treatment.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is an important global health problem, and the WHO adopted a strategy to eliminate HBV infection as a public health threat by the year 2030. In order to eliminate, it is critical to prevent the mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B. Since 2009, the WHO recommends to administer hepatitis B vaccine within 24 hours of birth to prevent MTCT.2 However, in Africa, the majority of countries provide hepatitis B vaccine as a combined vaccine (pentavalent or hexavalent) at the age of 6-10-14 weeks or 8-12-16 weeks after the birth, and only 10 sub-Saharan African countries integrated birth dose vaccine into their national immunization program. This is because, the GAVI, the Vaccine Alliance, does not support monovalent hepatitis B vaccine, and also about half of babies in Africa are born at home without the immediate access to vaccination. Moreover, the evidence base to support this WHO's recommendation to start immunizing immediately at birth, rather than later at 6-8 weeks of life, is not strong. Through a multidisciplinary approach comprising epidemiological, anthropological and economic components, the primary objective of the study is to measure the impact of the introduction of birth dose hepatitis B vaccine into the infant immunization program in Burkina Faso. Expected results will be to develop strong evidence base (effectiveness & cost-effectiveness) to recommend the integration of birth dose hepatitis B vaccine into the current vaccination schedule (8-12-16 weeks as a combined vaccine), to facilitate the Burkinabé Government to include the birth dose hepatitis B vaccine in their national vaccination program, to inform other African countries which have not yet integrated the birth dose hepatitis B vaccine in their national program and to imply whether additional strategy (e.g., maternal screening and antiviral therapy during pregnancy) might be necessary in order to eliminate the risk of mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B.
This study was a retrospective clinical observational cohort study. All patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) whose HBsAg decreased by less than 10% were treated continuously with interferon in the Department of Hepatology, Beijing Ditan Hospital, Beijing Medical University, Beijing Capital University, 2008.10-2017.4. The total interferon treatment time of the enrolled subjects was 48 weeks. The subjects were randomly divided into the following two observation cohorts: 1) patients with chronic hepatitis B treated with continuous interferon for 48 weeks; 2) intermittent interferon For 48 weeks of treatment for patients with chronic hepatitis B, the interferon treatment interval was 3 months. HBV DNA content, HBsAg/anti-HBs, HBeAg/anti-HBe and biochemical markers, serum AFP and liver imaging (liver ultrasound) were collected before treatment (baseline) and during treatment. The primary outcome measure was the rate at which HBsAg disappeared at 48 weeks of treatment. The secondary evaluation index was the 48-week HBeAg seroconversion rate. To investigate the efficacy, influencing factors and safety of interferon intermittent treatment of chronic hepatitis B.
The study will assess the safety and efficacy of AT-527 in combination with daclatasvir after 8 or 12 weeks of treatment.
