Among risk groups for GB virus C (GBV-C)/HGV infection, patients with haematological diseases are particularly exposed due to the combination of transfusional support and immunodeficiency status. To examine any association between GBV-C/HGV positivity and different malignancy potential of hematologi

The development of new antiretroviral agents may improve survival of HIV-infected individuals, and therefore chronic viral hepatitis may become more relevant in these patients. The presence of GBV-C/HGV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA were investigated by reverse transcriptasenested polymerase chain
We compared characteristics of patients with GB virus C/hepatitis G virus (GBV-C/HGV) RNA to those of patients with GBV-C/HGV E2-antibody. GBV-C/HGV RNA and GBV-C/HGV antibody were assayed in 83 persons with hemophilia using a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and an enzyme-linked immu
Although infection with GB virus-C/hepatitis G virus (GBV-C/HGV) by blood transfusion is well documented, little is known about the other routes of transmission. The prevalence of GBV-C/HGV infection in spouses of index patients and the related risk factors were studied. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and
The viral genome of GB virus C/hepatitis G virus (GBV-C/HGV), a single-strand RNA virus, is subject to considerable variability and at least four genotypes have been suggested based on phylogenetic analysis. While co-infection of GBV-C/HGV with other infectious agents such as hepatitis C virus (HCV)
