An age-structured model of hepatitis B viral infection highlights the potential of different therapeutic strategies [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Hepatitis B virus is a global health threat, and its elimination by 2030 has been prioritised by the World Health Organisation. Here we present an age-structured model for the immune response to an HBV infection, which takes into account contributions from both cell-mediated and humoral immunity.

Rising Mortality Associated With Hepatitis C Virus in the United States, 2003-2013.

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2016
In the United States, hepatitis C virus (HCV)-associated mortality is increasing. From 2003-2013, the number of deaths associated with HCV has now surpassed 60 other nationally notifiable infectious conditions combined.

Can Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Direct-Acting Antiviral Treatment as Prevention Reverse the HCV Epidemic Among Men Who Have Sex With Men in the United Kingdom? Epidemiological and Modeling Insights

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2016
Epidemiological data and modeling suggest a continuing hepatitis C virus (HCV) epidemic among human immunodeficiency virus-diagnosed men who have sex with men in the United Kingdom.

Mathematical analysis of an extended cellular model of the Hepatitis C Virus infection with non-cytolytic process [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
The aims of this work is to analyse of the global stability of the extended model of hepatitis C virus(HCV) infection with cellular proliferation, spontaneous cure and hepatocyte homeostasis. We first give general information about hepatitis C. Secondly, We prove the existence of local, maximal and global solutions of the model and establish some ...

A Markov model for the spread of Hepatitis C [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2008
We propose a Markov model for the spread of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) among drug users who use injections. We then proceed to an asymptotic analysis (large initial population) and show that the Markov process is close to the solution of a non linear autonomous differential system.

The prevalence of hepatitis C virus infection in Egypt 2015: implications for future policy on prevention and treatment

open access: yesLiver international (Print), 2016
In 2015, a national Egyptian health issue survey was conducted to describe the prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. In this paper, we describe the HCV burden in 2015, compare the results with the national survey conducted in 2008, and discuss

Hepatitis C Virus NS5A Protein Triggers Oxidative Stress by Inducing NADPH Oxidases 1 and 4 and Cytochrome P450 2E1

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2016
Replication of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is associated with the induction of oxidative stress, which is thought to play a major role in various liver pathologies associated with chronic hepatitis C.

Global Stability analysis of a cellular model of Hepatitis C Virus infection under treatment [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
In this paper, we present the global analysis of a HCV model under therapy. We prove that the solutions with positive initial values are global, positive, bounded and not display periodic orbits. In addition, we show that the model is globally asymptotically stable, by using appropriate Lyapunov functions.

Hepatitis C virus infection in children and adolescents

open access: yesHepatology Communications, 2017
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains a major public health burden, with an estimated worldwide prevalence of 2.5% of the population (177.5 million infected adults); this ranges from 1.3% in the Americas to 2.9% in Africa.1 In the United States alone,
