Ribavirin exerts differential effects on functions of Cd4+ Th1, Th2, and regulatory T cell clones in hepatitis C. [PDF]
Ribavirin improves outcomes of therapy in chronic hepatitis C but its mode of action has still remained unclear. Since ribavirin has been proposed to modulate the host's T cell responses, we studied its direct effects on CD4(+) T cell clones with diverse

ABSTRACT Approximately 8.8 million people are living with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) in Pakistan. We assessed factors related to health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) among the general population screened for HCV and calculated the national burden in quality‐adjusted life years (QALYs).

Ribavirin Contributes to Hepatitis C Virus Suppression by Augmenting pDC Activation and Type 1 IFN Production. [PDF]
Ribavirin is used as a component of combination therapies for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection together with pegylated interferon and/or direct-acting antiviral drugs. Its mechanism of action, however, is not clear.

ABSTRACT Background The malignant glioma, as the most common and aggressive primary brain and spinal cord neoplasm, has shown limited responsiveness to available treatments, including tumor dissection, radiation, and chemotherapy. Thus, interferon type I, as a supplemental therapy, is added to the main therapies to overcome neoplasm resistance and ...

ABSTRACT Advances in hepatology—such as noninvasive serum biomarkers (e.g., Fibrosure since 2004), imaging techniques (e.g., MR Elastography since 2009 and FibroScan since 2013), and effective direct‐acting antivirals for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C—have likely influenced liver biopsy practices.
