    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In Stockholm County the two major injecting drugs are amphetamine and heroin, injected by about 9 000 persons almost every day. There is no access to needle and syringe program and about 1000 patients are in substitution programs, mostly Methadone and Burprenorphine programs. LÄS MER

  3. 42. Studies on transmission and immune responses of the human hepaciviruses

    Författare :Margaret Chen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The hepatitis C virus (HCV) and GB virus C/hepatitis G virus (GBV-C/HGV) are the most recently identified hepaciviruses in the family of Flaviviridae. Although these viruses are transmitted mainly through parenteral routes a significant proportion of infected individuals lack identified transmission routes. LÄS MER

  4. 43. Hepatitis C virus infection : molecular analysis of transmission and immunity

    Författare :Tobias Allander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Hepatitis C virus; Nosocomial transmission; Hemodialysis; Leukemia Envelope glycoprotein gp70; Hypervariable region 1; Antibodies; Phage display; Combinatorial antibody libraries; Neutralization.;

    Sammanfattning : Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an important cause for chronic liver disease worldwide. Infection by HCV may resolve spontaneously, but in the majority of cases a chronic infection is established, that may result in liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular cancer. LÄS MER

  5. 44. Development of vaccines and mouse models for chronic hepatitis C virus infection

    Författare :Sepideh Levander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major causative agent for severe liver disease and cancer worldwide. Globally, it is estimated that approximately 185 million people are infected with HCV and 130-170 million of these are chronic carriers of the virus (1, 2). LÄS MER

  7. 45. Hepatitis C virus. Aspects on natural history, antibody response, and viral quantification

    Författare :Martin Lagging; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Hepatitis C virus; nosocomial infection; pseudotyped virus; fibrosis; viral quantification;

    Sammanfattning : Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the major cause of parenterally transmitted non-A, non-B hepatitis, and is associated with chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Despite the screening of blood products nosocomial spread of HCV continues to occur. LÄS MER
