Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2004
Interferon alpha, lamivudine, and adefovir are the three drugs currently approved for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV). There are pros and cons associated with the use of each drug. Individualization of therapy, based upon factors such as patient comorbidities, response to prior therapies, and stage of disease, is recommended.

Gastroenterology Nursing, 1989
Chronic hepatitis (CH) may be defined as persistence of an inflammatory reaction in the liver for greater than 4 months. Different immune mechanisms of liver damage are operative in children with the three common types of CH. In autoimmune CH the cytotoxic effect is mostly confined to the non-T cell lymphocyte fraction.

Among hepatitis A to E viruses, hepatitis B, C, and D viruses can cause chronic hepatitis, in both children and adults. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is the most prevalent and important one. Perinatal transmission accounts for about 40-45% of chronic HBV infection in hyperendemic areas.

SUMMARYIn a group of 35 children first classified as “chronic hepatitis”, the study of the histo‐logical patterns revealed only 16 cases as actual chronic hepatitis: 3 persistent nonaggres‐sive hepatitis (type l), 6 chronic aggressive hepatitis (type 2 a) and 7 chronic aggressive hepatitis (type 2 b).

Virchows Archiv A Pathological Anatomy and Histology, 1974
A type of chronic hepatitis designated as chronic septal hepatitis was distinguished morphologically from chronic aggressive and chronic persistent hepatitis: 18 cases were separated from chronic aggressive hepatitis by the absence of destruction and inflammatory infiltration of the limiting plate and from chronic persistent hepatitis by the presence ...

Southern Medical Journal, 1997
Infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. Epidemiologic and natural history studies have helped to define the clinical impact of HCV infection, and molecular diagnostic assays have established clinical endpoints against which therapeutic regimens are currently tested.

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1995
Autoimmune hepatitis is an inflammatory disease of the liver of unknown etiology that progresses toward cirrhosis and liver failure and is generally responsive to immunosuppressive treatment. The presence of anti-smooth muscle antibodies with anti-actin specificity and of anti-liver kidney microsomal antibodies defines two distinct subgroups of the ...
