Direct-acting antivirals with or without peginterferon α (PEG-IFN α) plus ribavirin are now available for the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Direct-acting antivirals are potent inhibitors of HCV replication, but some of them occasionally

Mortality associated with the treatment of HCV with direct-acting antivirals [PDF]
We read with interest the study by Welzel et al 1 confirming the high efficacy of oral direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) for the treatment of chronic HCV infection.2 Results about safety are less clear, since in these patients who have a high risk of hepatic decompensation or death within 12 months, the rate of death was 7.8% during treatment and ...

Direct-Acting Antiviral Therapy Outcomes in Canadian Chronic Hepatitis C Telemedicine Patients
Introduction: Many of the 300,000 HCV-infected Canadians live in under-served and remote areas without access to HCV healthcare specialists. Telemedicine (TM) and advances in HCV management can facilitate linkage of these marginalized patients to ...

Update on hepatitis C: Direct-acting antivirals
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) was discovered 26 years ago. For decades, interferon-based therapy has been the mainstay of treatment for HCV. Recently, several direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) have been approved for treatment of HCV-infected patients and to help combat the virus.

ABSTRACT Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a frequent and serious complication in children receiving cancer therapy. Standardizing FN management across Asia is challenging due to variable healthcare infrastructure, diagnostic capacity, and infection patterns; however, it could improve resource use and patient outcomes.

Unmet needs of chronic hepatitis C in the era of direct-acting antiviral therapy [PDF]
The treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) has been revolutionized in an era of all-oral direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) since 2014. Satisfactory treatment efficacy and tolerability can be provided by novel DAAs.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

The ‘Viennese epidemic’ of acute HCV in the era of direct-acting antivirals
AbstractThe recently reported epidemic of acute hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections —observed predominantly among men who have sex with men (MSM)—may now decline due to wide availability of direct‐acting antivirals (DAAs). This study aimed to investigate the current trends of acute hepatitis C in Vienna.
