## Abstract Although occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (HBV‐DNA in serum in the absence of hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg]) is common in chronic hepatitis C, its characteristics are not well known. In this work, the presence of HBV‐DNA (by polymerase chain reaction; PCR) and its distribu
## Abstract The patterns of hepatitis B virus DNA (HBV‐DNA) expression were studied in 2 sequential liver biopsies from 26 children (18 treated with interferon and 8 controls) with chronic hepatitis B. In the basal biopsy replicative forms of HBV‐DNA were detected in all of the samples and integrat
## Abstract Hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA may persist in the liver in the absence of serum HBV–DNA after a self‐limited acute hepatitis B. This may also occur in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection but its prevalence and its impact on liver histology is unknown. HBV–DNA was tested
To study the role of hepatitis C virus in non-A, non-B chronic hepatitis, 49 liver biopsy samples from 40 patients with non-A, non-B chronic hepatitis and 9 control patients were analyzed by complementary DNA/polymerase chain reaction. Two segments of the HCV genome, one in the nonstructural region
