HCV core antigen and HCV-RNA in HIV/HCV co-infected patients with different HCV genotypes [PDF]
BMC Infectious Diseases, 2014 A good correlation between HCV core antigen (HCVAg) and different HCV-RNA assays has been described, but little data are available in HCV/HIV co-infection. We aimed to evaluate HCVAg in comparison with HCV-RNA and to determine their kinetics during antiviral treatment in selected HCV/HIV co-infected patients.355 samples from 286 HCV/HIV co-infected ...
