“…In contrast to HEV, HAV exposure is widespread in children. Jaundice, fever, fatigue, and hepatomegaly are common clinical presentations in HAV, HEV, and confection with both viruses in acute viral hepatitis [ 45 ]. The double infection can lead to serious complications and increased mortality due to the high risk of acute liver failure in both children and adults.…”

“…Another study conducted in Bangladesh reported that the double infection rate is about 5.3% [ 47 ]. The coinfection rate has decreased in recent years, from 2006–2020, and this may be the result of a high rate of HAV vaccination and improved sanitation [ 45 ]. Furthermore, Marciano et al have discovered an unexpectedly high proportion of coinfection of HAV with both HIV and syphilis.…”

Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is one of the well-known viruses that cause hepatitis all around the globe. Although this illness has decreased in developed countries due to extensive immunization, numerous developing and under-developed countries are struggling with this virus. HAV infection can be spread by oral-fecal contact, and there are frequent epidemics through nutrition. Improvements in socioeconomic and sanitary circumstances have caused a shift in the disease’s prevalence worldwide. Younger children are usually asymptomatic, but as they become older, the infection symptoms begin to appear. Symptoms range from slight inflammation and jaundice to acute liver failure in older individuals. While an acute infection may be self-limiting, unrecognized persistent infections, and the misapplication of therapeutic methods based on clinical guidelines are linked to a higher incidence of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and mortality. Fortunately, most patients recover within two months of infection, though 10–15% of patients will relapse within the first six months. A virus seldom leads to persistent infection or liver damage. The mainstay of therapy is based on supportive care. All children from 12–23 months, as well as some susceptible populations, should receive routine vaccinations, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American Academy of Pediatrics. Laboratory diagnosis of HAV is based on antigen detection, checking liver enzyme levels, and antibody screening. Furthermore, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology has identified HAV in suspected nutrition sources; therefore, this technique is used for preventative measures and food-related laws.

According to studies, the liver’s ability to perform its physiological functions in the body determines the diet of patients with liver diseases. Malnutrition results from the liver’s inability to metabolize nutrients as a result of chronic liver dysfunctions. Objectives: Reviewing the data about diets and dietary supplements that manage liver dysfunctions nutritionally. Results: Malnutrition is particularly prevalent in cirrhosis patients, according to clinical studies. Because malnutrition has a significant negative impact on morbidity, mortality, and quality of life, it is crucial to evaluate all cirrhosis patients, regardless of etiology or severity. A term of supplemental enteral nutrition may be suggested for patients who do not achieve their nutritional objectives. A detailed nutritional and exercise assessment will enable the development of an individualized treatment plan that includes dietary and exercise plans. The dietary treatment should outline daily calorie targets with a focus on high-quality protein and address any vitamin and micronutrient deficiencies, with a diet high in those nutrients or supplements. Conclusions: While there is evidence to support the use of particular restricted dietary plans and dietary supplements to manage liver diseases, these findings should be regarded as preliminary until they are confirmed in larger randomized controlled clinical trials.
