Increasing Treatment Rates for Hepatitis C in Primary Care
CONCLUSION: A multifaceted primary care improvement initiative increased clinician confidence and was associated with an increase in the proportion of HCV RNA positive patients who initiated curative treatment.PMID:37468214 | DOI:10.3122/jabfm.2022.220427R1

Updated Operational Guidance for Implementing CDC's Recommendations on Testing for Hepatitis C Virus Infection
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2023 Jul 14;72(28):766-768. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7228a2.ABSTRACTCurrent hepatitis C virus (HCV) testing guidance recommends a two-step testing sequence for diagnosis of HCV infection. Performing an HCV RNA test whenever an HCV antibody test is reactive (complete testing) is critical to achieve national HCV elimination goals. When an HCV antibody test is reactive and no HCV RNA test is performed, testing is considered incomplete. Historically, approximately one third of patients have incomplete testing. This update clarifies that all sites performing HCV screening should ensure single-visit sample...

Stability of a diffusive-delayed HCV infection model with general cell-to-cell incidence function incorporating immune response and cell proliferation
Theory Biosci. 2023 Jul 12. doi: 10.1007/s12064-023-00395-z. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn this work, we analyse the dynamics of a five-dimensional hepatitis C virus infection mathematical model including the spatial mobility of hepatitis C virus particles, the transmission of hepatitis C virus infection by mitosis process of infected hepatocytes with logistic growth, time delays, antibody response and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) immune response with general incidence functions for both modes of infection transmission, namely virus-to-cell as well as cell-to-cell. Firstly, we prove rigorously the existence, the uniquen...

Viral hepatitis increases the risk of cholangiocarcinoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: HBV and HCV infection could increase the risk of CCA. Therefore, in clinical practice, attention should be paid to CCA screening and early prevention of HBV and HCV infected patients.PMID:37434689 | PMC:PMC10331712 | DOI:10.21037/tcr-23-892
