Telaprevir for previously untreated chronic hepatitis C virus infection.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2011
BACKGROUND In phase 2 trials, telaprevir, a hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 protease inhibitor, in combination with peginterferon-ribavirin, as compared with peginterferon-ribavirin alone, has shown improved efficacy, with potential for shortening the

Survival, safety and belonging: An ethnographic study of experiences and perceptions of people who inject drugs accessing a supervised injecting Centre

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, Volume 57, Issue 4, Page 829-846, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Introduction The inclusion of people who use drugs in the design and evaluation of their health services remains a relatively new phenomenon. The aim of the research was to explore the experiences and perceptions of people accessing the Medical Supervised Injecting Centre (MSIC), and Clinic 180, Sydney Australia, and the factors facilitating ...

Global analysis of a spatiotemporal cellular model for the transmission of hepatitis C virus with Hattaf-Yousfi functional response [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
In this paper, a mathematical analysis of the global dynamics of a partial differential equation viral infection cellular model is carried out. We study the dynamics of a hepatitis C virus (HCV) model, under therapy, that considers both absorption phenomenon and diffusion of virions, infected and uninfected cells in liver. Firstly, we prove boundedness

Predictability of IL-28B-polymorphism on protease-inhibitor-based triple-therapy in chronic HCV-genotype-1 patients: A meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yesWorld Journal of Hepatology, 6(10):759-765, 2014, 2014
AIM: To investigate the predictability of interleukin-28B single nucleotide polymorphism rs12979860 with respect to sustained virological response (SVR) in chronically hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype-1 patients treated with a protease-inhibitor and pegylated interferon-$\alpha$ (Peg-INF-$\alpha$) based triple-therapy.

Estimation of Thyroid Gland and Pancreatic Functioning in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B and C Combined with Autoimmune Thyroiditis and without it

open access: yesMìžnarodnij Endokrinologìčnij Žurnal, 2012
Chronic viral hepatitis is one of the most urgent problems of the healthcare. Viral hepatitis is not restricted with liver damage; they are like systemic disease proceeding with obligate development of extrahepatic manifestations.

Chronic hepatitis C [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 2007
Hepatitis C infection is a treatable disease.1 Generally, people with chronic hepatitis C are relatively asymptomatic but risk progression over time to cirrhosis and its complications. Combination antiviral therapy with pegylated interferon and ribavirin achieves sustained virological response rates of 42-80% depending on genotype.2 In August 2006 the ...

Augmented epigenetic repression of hepatitis B virus covalently closed circular DNA by interferon-α and small-interfering RNA synergy

open access: yesmBio
The persistence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) is a key obstacle for HBV cure. This study aims to comprehensively assess the effect of interferon (IFN) and small-interfering RNA (siRNA) combination on the cccDNA ...
