Analysis of Hepatitis C Viral Dynamics Using Latin Hypercube Sampling

open access: yes, 2011
We consider a mathematical model comprising of four coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs) for studying the hepatitis C (HCV) viral dynamics. The model embodies the efficacies of a combination therapy of interferon and ribavirin.

Retreatment of Direct Acting Agents (DAAs) After Initial DAA Failure in Hepatitis C Patients

open access: yesHepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) and sofosbuvir/ledipasvir (SOF/LDV) are widely used as first‐line direct‐acting antiviral (DAA) regimens for chronic hepatitis C, achieving high virus eradication rates. However, a small proportion of patients experience treatment failure, and the optimal retreatment strategies for such ...

Post‐to Pretreatment Ratio of Serum CXCL10 Level Predicts Short‐Term Liver Function Outcome in Compensated and Decompensated Cirrhotic Patients Due to Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection After Direct‐Acting Antiviral Therapy

open access: yesHepatology Research, EarlyView.
The post‐to pretreatment serum CXCL10 ratio was independently associated with short‐term liver function outcome following HCV eradication in cirrhotic patients. ABSTRACT Aim The prognostic value of serum C‐X‐C motif chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10) levels for liver function was investigated in hepatitis C virus (HCV)–infected patients with compensated or ...
