The impact of human immunodeficiency virus on viral hepatitis [PDF]

Liver International, 2011
AbstractThe combination of antiretroviral (ARV) therapies introduced at the end of the 1990s profoundly changed the natural history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Liver diseases are one of the three primary causes of ‘non‐AIDS‐related’ death in people living with HIV for three reasons: the high prevalence of hepatotropic viral co ...

An enhancer variant at 16q22.1 predisposes to hepatocellular carcinoma via regulating PRMT7 expression

Nature Communications, 2022
The role of enhancer variants in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) predisposition remains unknown. Here, the authors perform a genome-wide survey of HCC-susceptible enhancer variants in 11,958 individuals, identify rs73613962 within the intronic region of ...

Molecular Identification of HIV-1 in the Presence of Hepatitis B Virus and Hepatitis C Virus Co-infections

Balkan Medical Journal, 2020
Background: Because of their similar modes of transmission, the simultaneous infection of viral hepatitis and human immunodeficiency virus are increasingly seen as a big problem related to human health. Aims: To determine the drug mutations in hepatitis

Human genetic basis of fulminant viral hepatitis [PDF]

Human Genetics, 2020
In rare cases, hepatitis A virus (HAV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) can cause fulminant viral hepatitis (FVH), characterized by massive hepatocyte necrosis and an inflammatory infiltrate. Other viral etiologies of FVH are rarer. FVH is life-threatening, but the patients are typically otherwise healthy, and normally resistant to other microbes.

Viral hepatitis in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2003
From 1992 to 1995 we studied 232 (69% male, 87% Caucasian) anti-human immunodeficiency virus (anti-HIV) positive Brazilian patients, through a questionnaire; HIV had been acquired sexually by 50%, from blood by 32%, sexually and/or from blood by 16.4% and by an unknown route by 1.7%.
