Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Cross-Sectional Study of the Prevalence of Hepatitis C Virus InfectionOmar Atrooz, Rehab Thunibat, Ihssan AtroozLiver pain is increased by hepatotropic viruses, such as the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). This illness can progress to cirrhosis and hepatocellular cancer. This study aims to determine the prevalence of hepatitis C in the Southern Jordanian cities (Karak and Tafilah) as well as the correlations between alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), age and gender in hepatitis C patients. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 5 Jul 2024 · 4,414 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePREVALENCE OF AUTOANTIBODIES REVEALS A PREDOMINANT SMA AND ANCA-PR3/MPO PATTERN IN HIV INFECTION AND SMA IN HAV-INFECTED CHILDRENLuz M. Navarta, Carlos A. Espul, Nelson Acosta-RiveroHepatitis A Virus (HAV) and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) have been associated with development of autoantibodies and autoimmune manifestations in children. Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) is particularly aggressive in children/adolescents with a more severe outcome. Thus, studying the mechanisms of virus-related autoimmune disorders in children is a relevant topic of research. We aimed to study the prevalence of autoantibodies in plasma … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2014 · 7,038 accessesView PDFCite
