The prevalence of antibodies to hepatitis C virus (HCVAb) was investigated in 52 unselected patients with mixed cryoglobulinemia and in 84 patients with other systemic immunologic diseases. HCVAb were detected by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and their specificity was evaluated by a recombin
Essential cryoglobulinemia is associated closely with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The mechanism responsible for occurrence of the disease is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate pathogenetic roles of HCV in cryoglobulinemia. One hundred sixty-seven consecutive patients with HCV w
## Abstract ## Objective To determine if antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptide (antiβCCP) are found in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. ## Methods Rheumatoid factor (RF) and antiβCCP were measured in sera from 50 patients with HCV infection but without cryoglobulinemia, sera from
## Abstract Since hepatitis C virus (HCV) and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) are transmitted by the same routes as hepatitis B virus (HBV), simultaneous or concurrent HCV and HDV infection in patients with chronic HBV infection may occur. To test this hypothesis and to examine the clinicohistological
## Abstract To determine the prevalence and clinical significance of IgM and IgA antibody to hepatitis C virus (HCV) core antigen in chronic HCV infection, sera from 47 patients were tested for immunoglobulin class M (IgM) and immunoglobulin A (IgA) antibody to HCV core antigen by solidβphase enzym
