    Sammanfattning : Background Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic autoimmune liver disease that is overrepresented in women (75% of cases). Studies have described a 10-year survival after diagnosis near to that of the general population, but less is known about the long-term survival. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Chronic hepatitis B in children

    Författare :Ann Söderström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic hepatitis B affects more than 350 million people. In areas of high and intermediate endemicity, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is mainly contracted in the perinatal period or early childhood, and many of them become chronic carriers. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Genomic and transcriptomic profiles in chronic hepatitis B infection

    Författare :Johan Ringlander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hepatitis B virus; hepatitis delta virus; integration; deep sequencing; cirrhosis; HCC;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) affects >250 million people globally and is the most common cause of hepatocellular carcinoma and liver cirrhosis worldwide. Approximately one million deaths each year are attributed to HBV infection. The virus is adapted to the human host and has developed mechanisms to evade immunity. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Hepatitis C virus infection : a nationwide study of associated morbidity and mortality

    Författare :Ann-Sofi Duberg; Erik Bäck; Karl Ekdahl; Rolf Hultcrantz; Anders Blaxhult; Johan Carlson; Örebro universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : The hepatitis C virus (HCV) was characterised in 1989. HCV was transmitted through transfusion of blood/blood products, but injection drug use is now the most common route of transmission. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Genetic variability of hepatitis B virus in chronic infection

    Författare :Charles Hannoun; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hepatitis B virus; mutation; genotype; phylogeny; ; Recombination; coinfection; interferon; response;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic hepatitis B is a major health problem, and may lead to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The liver damage in hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is considered to be a result of the immune response, and not a cytopathic effect of the virus itself. LÄS MER
