Next‐Generation Sequencing Methods for Sensitive Hepatitis B Viral Genome Analysis: A European Study

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This multicentre study investigated the utility of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) to detect and generate hepatitis B virus (HBV) genomes in samples of low viral load (from 0.2 to 6207 IU/mL). 23 HBV DNA‐positive plasma samples of genotypes A‐E and one HBV‐negative control sample were assayed blindly via 9 established NGS methods from 6 ...

The Malaysian Society of Gastroenterology and Hepatology Consensus Statements on Prevention and Early Detection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Malaysia

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 41, Issue 9, Page 2639-2655, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains one of the leading causes of cancer‐related deaths in Malaysia. Early detection increases the likelihood of curative treatment and improves survival. This consensus document aims to provide evidence‐based, locally relevant recommendations for the prevention and early detection of HCC.
