The aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of previous or occult HBV infection in a cohort of
## Abstract The TT virus (TTV) load was estimated in sera obtained from 237 patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)βrelated chronic liver disease including 42 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), by realβtime detection PCR using primers and a probe derived from the wellβconserved untranslate
Two hundred ninety patients (203 men, 87 women), age 7 to 74 years (mean: 39.1 years), with chronic hepatitis B virus infection, were prospectively followed for a period of 1 to 4 years to determine the value of afetoprotein monitoring in the early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma. At presentat
