HCV reinfection after HCV therapy among HIV/HCV‐coinfected individuals in Europe [PDF]

HIV Medicine, 2021
AbstractObjectivesAlthough direct‐acting antivirals (DAAs) can clear HCV in nearly all HIV/HCV‐coinfected individuals, high rates of reinfection may hamper efforts to eliminate HCV in this population. We investigated reinfection after sustained virological response (SVR) in HIV/HCV‐coinfected individuals in Europe.MethodsFactors associated with odds of

Feasibility of anti-HCV reflex HCV Ag screening strategy in an HCV endemic community

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2021
The HCV core antigen (HCV Ag) assay displays high sensitivity and strong correlation with HCV RNA. However, the feasibility of anti-HCV reflex HCV Ag screening in a community-wide setting is rarely discussed.We performed a two-phase community-based hepatitis C screen in an HCV-prone area of central Taiwan.

Screening for HCV [PDF]

Canadian Medical Association Journal, 2014
We applaud Shah and colleagues[1][1] for raising the issue of establishing a Canadian screening program for hepatitis C. We agree that hepatitis C shows the hallmarks of an infectious disease suited to a screening program,[2][2] but we are concerned that the extrapolation of American data into ...

HCV and Lymphoproliferation [PDF]

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2012
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a serious public health problem because of its worldwide diffusion and sequelae. It is not only a hepatotropic but also a lymphotropic agent and is responsible not only for liver injury—potentially evolving to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma—but also for a series of sometimes severely disabling extrahepatic ...

HCV and the kidney [PDF]

Liver International, 2016
AbstractChronic hepatitis C (CHC) is significantly associated with a risk of renal deterioration over time. Renal impairment, especially stage 4–5 chronic kidney disease, increases the risk of: (i) the prevalence and incidence (in dialysis/transplantation) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection; (ii) liver deterioration during kidney transplantation and (
