TL;DR: In an analysis of data from a large prospective study of patients with hepatitis C virus-associated compensated or decompensated cirrhosis, it is found that the SVR to DAA treatment decreased the incidence of HCC over a mean follow-up of 14 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal evaluation reveals a complex spectrum of virological profiles in hepatitis B virus/hepatitis C virus-coinfected patients.

TL;DR: The virological patterns in HBV/HCV coinfection are widely divergent and have dynamic profiles, which are essential for making a correct diagnosis and tailoring the appropriate therapeutic schedule in coinfected patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulse wave velocity and augmentation index, but not intima-media thickness, are early indicators of vascular damage in hypercholesterolemic children.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated local and systemic arterial stiffness as well as carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) in hypercholesterolemic (HCh) children.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA integration in patients with occult HBV infection and hepatocellular carcinoma.

TL;DR: This study investigated and characterized HBV DNA integration in HCC tissues from OBI patients to investigate and characterize the etiopathogenetic role exerted by HBV in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatocellular carcinoma: the point of view of the hepatitis B virus
TL;DR: Different aspects of HBV involvement in heapatocarcinogenesis are reviewed, including its prooncogenic properties playing a role in many of these mechanisms that underlies complex and multifactorial pathogenetic mechanisms.
