Mathematical Model and Analysis of Transmission Dynamics of Hepatitis B Virus [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Hepatitis B is a potentially life-threatening liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). In this paper, the transmission dynamics of hepatitis B is formulated with a mathematical model with considerations of different classes of individuals, namely immunized, susceptible, latent,infected and recovered class.

Exploration of Hepatitis B Virus Infection Dynamics through an Intracellular Model [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Analysis of the cell population generally provides average information about viral infection in a host whereas the intracellular model captures the individual cellular responses. The primary goal of this study is to comprehensively analyze the intracellular dynamics of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and to identify the most influential factors.

Hepatitis B/C virus co-infection in Iran: A seroepidemiological study [PDF]

, 2007
Background/aims: As hepatitis B and C virus have the same transmission routes, dual infection may occur. The aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of HCV in HBsAg-positive subjects.

Risk factors and outcome among a large patient cohort with community-acquired acute hepatitis C in Italy [PDF]

, 2006
BACKGROUND: The epidemiology of acute hepatitis C has changed during the past decade in Western countries. Acute HCV infection has a high rate of chronicity, but it is unclear when patients with acute infection should be treated.

Is Hepatitis C Virus Carcinogenic? [PDF]

Gastroenterology, 2012
Although infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) has become a leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma, the mechanisms by which it results in carcinogenesis remain a subject of debate. Here, we explore the possibility that HCV replication impairs cellular DNA damage responses, thereby promoting instability of the infected host cell genome, and that HCV

Natural reservoirs for homologs of hepatitis C virus

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2014
Hepatitis C virus is considered a major public health problem, infecting 2%–3% of the human population. Hepatitis C virus infection causes acute and chronic liver disease, including chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Model Based Framework for Estimating Mutation Rate of Hepatitis C Virus in Egypt [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a widely spread disease all over the world. HCV has very high mutation rate that makes it resistant to antibodies. Modeling HCV to identify the virus mutation process is essential to its detection and predicting its evolution.

Hepatitis C Virus Epidemic Control Using a Nonlinear Adaptive Strategy [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Hepatitis C is a viral infection that appears as a result of the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), and it has been recognized as the main reason for liver diseases. HCV incidence is growing as an important issue in the epidemiology of infectious diseases. In the present study, a mathematical model is employed for simulating the dynamics of HCV outbreak in a ...
