Heart and Lung Transplants from HCV‐Infected Donors to Uninfected Recipients

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2019
Background Hearts and lungs from donors with hepatitis C viremia are typically not transplanted. The advent of direct‐acting antiviral agents to treat hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has raised the possibility of substantially increasing the donor ...

The distribution of hepatitis C virus genotypes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesAsian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019
Background: Hepatic cirrhosis develops within 20-30 years in approximately 20% of individuals chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Aims and Objective: This study aimed to determine the distribution of HCV genotypes in patients with HCV ...

Evidence for a Complex Mosaic Genome Pattern in a Full-length Hepatitis C Virus Sequence

open access: yesEvolutionary Bioinformatics, 2008
The genome of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) exhibits a high genetic variability. This remarkable heterogeneity is mainly attributed to the gradual accumulation of mutational changes, whereas the contribution of recombination events to the evolution of HCV ...

Sustained virological response 12 versus sustained virological response 24 as evaluation endpoints in chronic hepatitis C virus Egyptian patients treated with sofosbuvir-based regimens

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Background The recommended reliance on 12 weeks posttreatment sustained virological response (SVR12) instead of SVR24 was validated for treatment evaluation. Aim Judging claimed concordance between SVR12 and SVR24.

Daclatasvir plus sofosbuvir for previously treated or untreated chronic HCV infection.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2014
BACKGROUND All-oral combination therapy is desirable for patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. We evaluated daclatasvir (an HCV NS5A replication complex inhibitor) plus sofosbuvir (a nucleotide analogue HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitor ...

Gender as a factor affecting NK cell activity in patients successfully treated for chronic hepatitis C with direct-acting antivirals

open access: yesCentral European Journal of Immunology, 2021
Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) affects the activity of natural killer (NK) cells, but successful interferon- free treatment partially restores it. The goal of this study was to assess whether gender influences NK functionality.

Quantifying the relative contribution of free virus and cell-to-cell transmission routes to the propagation of hepatitis C virus infections in vitro using an agent-based model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Experiments have shown that hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections in vitro disseminate both distally via the release and diffusion of cell-free virus through the medium, and locally via direct, cell-to-cell transmission. To determine the relative contribution of each mode of infection to HCV dissemination, we developed an agent-based model (ABM) that ...

Sero-prevalence and risk factors of hepatitis C virus infection among pregnant women in Bahir Dar city, Northwest Ethiopia: cross sectional study

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2015
Viral hepatitis during pregnancy is associated with high risk of maternal complications and has become a leading cause of foetal death. So the main objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of hepatitis C viral infections among pregnant ...

Ledipasvir and sofosbuvir for previously treated HCV genotype 1 infection.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2014
BACKGROUND Effective treatment for hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 infection in patients who have not had a sustained virologic response to prior interferon-based therapy represents an unmet medical need.
