Characterising Hepatitis D Virus in the UK From 2011 to 2021
ABSTRACT Little is known about hepatitis B virus (HBV) and Hepatitis D virus (HDV) coinfection in the UK. HDV screening is recommended among all individuals with HBV, with coinfection associated with increased disease progression. Using data on HDV testing, shared by 11 laboratories in the UK who reported undertaking HDV testing, and national testing ...

ABSTRACT To close gaps in implementing care of people with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in resource‐limited settings, we evaluated the accuracy of a novel liver point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) protocol for hepatitis (PUSH) among front‐line non‐radiology healthcare workers in Zambia. At University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka, Zambia, from March to

ABSTRACT Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and hepatitis D virus (HDV) coinfection are major causes of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The geographic distribution of CHB and alignment of anti‐HDV testing with CHB burden remain poorly defined. We aimed to examine if anti‐HDV testing and seropositivity align with areas of highest CHB burden.
