Advances in Rapid Nucleic Acid Diagnostics for Hepatitis B and C Viruses: A Comprehensive Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Chronic viral hepatitis, predominantly caused by HBV and HCV infections, remains a major global health burden and a leading cause of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and liver‐related mortality. Achieving the World Health Organisation (WHO) target of diagnosing 90% of HBV and HCV infections by 2030 necessitates a fundamental ...
