Light form of disease flow was observed in 69.3% (9/13) among the patients with acute hepatitis C, and in 77.8% (7/9) among the patients with non verified hepatitis. Detectability of RNA-HGV consists of 77.8% (7/9) and 42.8% (3/7) correspondingly among the patients' groups with light form of disease. All HGV RNA positive patients had 2 times lower content of total bilirubin and ALT in the blood comparing to RNA-HGV negative patients. HGV showed an active (4.7 EA) ability to induce the interferon formation. The C + G hepatitis patients had interferon titer equal to 3.7 EA, which apparently provides relief of hepatitis C clinical picture.
The incidence of acute and chronic hepatitis B and C in the districts of Almaty city over the past 10 years is presented in this article. (International Journal of Biomedicine. 2017;7(3):240-242.)
The results of a retrospective epidemiological analysis revealed a sharp decline in the incidence of acute hepatitis B among the entire population of Almaty and the absence of acute hepatitis B, acute hepatitis C and chronic hepatitis C among children under 14 years of age. We found an increased incidence of chronic hepatitis B and chronic hepatitis C among the population of Almaty. Assessment of the hepatitis C incidence by the cumulative indices more objectively reflects the epidemiological situation for this disease. Int J Biomed. 2016;6(3):222-224.).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
