EASL Recommendations on Treatment of Hepatitis C

Review of recent research on hepatitis C therapy for 54th annual meeting of the American association for the study of liver diseases

Echinococcosis in humans is a zoonotic infection caused by larval stages (metacestodes) of cestode species of the genus Echinococcus. Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is caused by Echinococcus granulosus, alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is caused by E. multilocularis, and polycystic forms are caused by either E. vogeli or E. oligarthrus. In untreated cases, AE has a high mortality rate. Although control is essentially feasible, CE remains a considerable health problem in many regions of the northern and southern hemispheres. AE is restricted to the northern hemisphere regions of North America and Eurasia. Recent studies have shown that E. multilocularis, the causative agent of AE, is more widely distributed than previously thought. There are also some hints of an increasing significance of polycystic forms of the disease, which are restricted to Central and South America. Various aspects of human echinococcosis are discussed in this review, including data on the infectivity of genetic variants of E. granulosus to humans, the increasing invasion of cities in Europe and Japan by red foxes, the main definitive hosts of E. multilocularis, and the first demonstration of urban cycles of the parasite. Examples of emergence or reemergence of CE are presented, and the question of potential spreading of E. multilocularis is critically assessed. Furthermore, information is presented on new and improved tools for diagnosing the infection in final hosts (dogs, foxes, and cats) by coproantigen or DNA detection and the application of molecular techniques to epidemiological studies. In the clinical field, the available methods for diagnosing human CE and AE are described and the treatment options are summarized. The development of new chemotherapeutic options for all forms of human echinococcosis remains an urgent requirement. A new option for the control of E. granulosus in the intermediate host population (mainly sheep and cattle) is vaccination. Attempts are made to reduce the prevalence of E. multilocualaris in fox populations by regular baiting with an anthelmintic (praziquantel). Recent data have shown that this control option may be used in restricted areas, for example in cities, with the aim of reducing the infection risk for humans.

Cryptococcoma is a rare entity, characterized by solid, space-occupying masses, usually found in the brain. It has been reported in the setting of “paradoxical” immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome. A case of retroperitoneal cryptococcoma in a HIV-infected woman with a clinical history of disseminated cryptococcosis on antifungal maintenance therapy is described.

In a recent issue of Tropical Doctor, Maher and Aylward' rightly addressed the vital role of clinicians and district and regional medical officers towards global eradication of poliomyelitis. Surely, the collection of appropriate stool samples would be vital for diagnosis of polio virus and non-poliovirus induced acute flaccid paralysis (AFP). Nevertheless, the clinical outcome in future enteroviral both poliovirus and non-poliovirus episodes of AFP should be modified by clinicians including practitioners of infectious diseases through imaging technology based usage of pleconaril and/or interferon. Recently, therapeutic intervention with pleconaril in three patients with acute poliovirus infection, two vaccineassociated and one wild-type poliovirus, was associated with a definite clinical and virological response. Neurological improvement was evident in two cases while in one there were better respiratory status and muscle strength. Furthermore, in one patient even the initial cerebrospinal fluid positive viral culture and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were followed by negative results/. In future, a diagnostic indication of poliovirus replication in motor neurons should be sought by imaging technology rather than virology and PCR. Prompt pleconaril administration should alter any poliovirus-induced morbidity. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been valuable in humans to diagnose poliovirus induced neuronal involvementas well as any accompanying encephalomyelitis\", Moreover, with magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), patients with hepatitis C (HCV) virus induced mild associated hepatitis showed an elevated choline/creatine ratio in basal ganglia and white matters. Both MRI and MRS would assist the infectious disease clinicians to learn much earlier, than feasible by either virology or PCR, about poliovirus-induced lesions in the central nervous system (CNS). MRI and MRS should be invaluable to pick up CNS involvement attributable to non-polio enteroviruses'', Pleconaril should be successful in treatment of neuronal lesions attributable to any highly epidemic and pathogenic enterovirus strains. Preliminary data on the efficacy of interferon 1X-2b in patients of HCV infection is intriguing. Virological outcome was outstanding in 44 patients who received interferon ex-2b during the acute phase of illness. Almost 100% were free of HCV RNA after 3 weeks of therapy. Therapeutic intervention during acute phase of viral AFP with interferon 1X-2b, singly or along with pleconaril should address any residual disability attributable to poliomyelitis. During the 1980s, IFNex was offered to a 16month infant and a 34-year old man with bulbar paralysis, due to wild type 1 and vaccine strain type 2 virus. The dose of IFNex was 1 million units in infant and 3 million units in the adult for 16 days? IFNex halted clinical progression within 24 hours and an improvement was evident within a day or so. During the final phase of global eradication clinicians including infectious disease practitioners and neurologists, apart from ensuring appropriate sampling of pathological materials' would be obligated to ensure MRI/MRS investigations to offer IFNex-2b and/or pleconaril to
