| 1 | Prevalence of hepatitis B and C markers among refugees in Athens显示文摘AIM: To assess the prevalence of hepatitis B and C serological markers in a population of refugees living in Athens.METHODS: One hundred and thirty refugees (81 males and 49 females, mean age ±SD: 31.7±8 years) were included in the study. The hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg),the hepatitis B virus core antibody (anti-HBc) and the hepatitis C virus antibody (anti-HCV) were detected using a third-generation immunoassay.RESULTS: Twenty individuals (15.4%) were HBsAg positive and 69 (53.1%) were anti-HBc positive. The prevalence of HBsAg and anti-HBc was higher among refugees from Albania and Asia (statistical significant difference, P<0.008 and P<0.001 respectively). The prevalence of these markers was found irrelevant to age or sex. Anti-HCV was detected in the serum of 3 individuals (2.3 %). No differences among age, sex or ethnicity regarding anti-HCV prevalence were found.CONCLUSION: It can be concluded that refugees living in Athens are an immigrant population characterized by a high incidence of HBV infection. The prevalence of HBV markers is higher among refugees from Albania and Asia. It is therefore believed that the adherence to general precautions and the initiation of HBV vaccination programs will be necessary in the future, especially in these communities.Although the prevalence of HCV infection seems to be relatively low, extended epidemiological surveys are needed to provide valid results. | Anastasios Roussos Constantin Goritsas Thomas Pappas Maria Spanaki Panagiota Papadaki Angeliki Ferti | 2003 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2003,9,5: | 11 |

| 10 | Factors associated with success of telaprevir-and boceprevir-based triple therapy for hepatitis C virus infection显示文摘AIM To evaluate new therapies for hepatitis C virus(HCV), data about real-world outcomes are needed.METHODS Outcomes of 223 patients with genotype 1 HCV who started telaprevir-or boceprevir-based triple therapy(May 2011-March 2012) at the Mount Sinai Medical Center were analyzed. Human immunodeficiency viruspositive patients and patients who received a liver transplant were excluded. Factors associated with sustained virological response(SVR24) and relapse were analyzed by univariable and multivariable logistic regression as well as classification and regression trees. Fast virological response(FVR) was defined as undetectable HCV RNA at week-4(telaprevir) or week-8(boceprevir). RESULTS The median age was 57 years, 18% were black, 44% had advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis(FIB-4 ≥ 3.25). Only 42%(94/223) of patients achieved SVR24 on an intention-totreat basis. In a model that included platelets, SVR24 was associated with white race [odds ratio(OR) = 5.92, 95% confidence interval(CI): 2.34-14.96], HCV sub-genotype 1b(OR = 2.81, 95%CI: 1.45-5.44), platelet count(OR = 1.10, per x 104 cells/μL, 95%CI: 1.05-1.16), and IL28 B CC genotype(OR = 3.54, 95%CI: 1.19-10.53). Platelet counts > 135 x 103/μL were the strongest predictor of SVR by classification and regression tree. Relapse occurred in 25%(27/104) of patients with an end-oftreatment response and was associated with non-FVR(OR = 4.77, 95%CI: 1.68-13.56), HCV sub-genotype 1a(OR = 5.20; 95%CI: 1.40-18.97), and FIB-4 ≥ 3.25(OR = 2.77; 95%CI: 1.07-7.22). CONCLUSION The SVR rate was 42% with telaprevir-or boceprevirbased triple therapy in real-world practice. Low platelets and advanced fibrosis were associated with treatment failure and relapse. | Kian Bichoupan Neeta Tandon Valerie Martel-Laferriere Neal M Patel David Sachs Michel Ng Emily A Schonfeld Alexis Pappas James Crismale Alicia Stivala Viktoriya Khaitova Donald Gardenier Michael Linderman William Olson Ponni V Perumalswami Thomas D Schiano Joseph A Odin Lawrence U Liu Douglas T Dieterich Andrea D Branch | 2017 | World Journal of Hepatology2017,9,11: | 0 |
