(HEPATOLOGY The role of the viral genotype, especially genotype 1b, in 1997;26:776-779.) the severity of liver injury induced by chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is unclear, probably because of confounding factors such as the date and mode of c
## Abstract The relative value of an anti‐hepatitis C virus (HCV) serological assay and reverse transcriptase‐nested polymerase chain reaction assays (RT‐PCR) were investigated for the constant 5′ putative noncoding region of HCV for the diagnosis of HCV‐associated chronic liver diseases in India.
