Several lines of evidence have suggested that immune mechanisms are involved in the pathogenesis of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-and hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related hepatitis. Study of patients with dual HBV and HCV infection raises the question of which is etiologically more relevant in determining the

In patients with chronic hepatitis B and C virus (HBV, HCV) infection, an inverse relationship in the replicative activity of the two viruses has been reported. In the present study the genotype of HCV was evaluated in 34 consecutive cases found with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and anti-HCV
## Abstract To characterize the state of dual infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV), HBV‐DNA and HCV‐RNA levels were determined by spot hybridization or polymerase chain reaction in the sera of patients who were positive for both hepatitis B surface antigen and HCV anti
One hundred ten consecutive patients (60 males and 50 females; age, mean AE standard deviation [SD], 22.6 AE 6.4 years; range 16-48 years) who were clinically diagnosed with sporadic acute hepatitis between December 2004 and January 2005 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, were studied. IgM antibodies to hepa
## Abstract The clinical and cellular interactions between hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) were investigated in patients co‐infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). One hundred ninety‐nine patients followed for 6 years were evaluated to compare the level of HBV DNA
