Journal ArticleDOI

Global prevalence and genotype distribution of hepatitis C virus infection in 2015: a modelling study

Sarah Blach, +221 more
TL;DR: The global estimate of viraemic HCV infections is lower than previous estimates, largely due to more recent prevalence estimates in Africa, and increased mortality due to liver-related causes and an ageing population may have contributed to a reduction in infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global prevalence, treatment, and prevention of hepatitis B virus infection in 2016: a modelling study

Devin Razavi-Shearer, +195 more
TL;DR: The estimate of HBV prevalence in 2016 differs from previous studies, potentially because it took into account the effect of infant prophylaxis and early childhood vaccination, as well as changing prevalence over time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Circulating levels of TNF-alpha and IL-6-relation to truncal fat mass and muscle mass in healthy elderly individuals and in patients with type-2 diabetes.

TL;DR: High plasma levels of TNF-alpha and IL-6 in elderly healthy people and in patients with type 2 diabetes are associated with increased truncal fat mass, suggesting that cytokines are partly derived from this adipose tissue bed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Historical epidemiology of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in selected countries

Philip Bruggmann, +96 more
TL;DR: In most countries, prevalence rates were higher among males, reflecting higher rates of injection drug use, and Diagnosis, treatment and transplant levels also differed considerably between countries.
