Pedro Lopez-Lopez,María Ángeles Risalde,Mario Frias,Ignacio García-Bocanegra,Teresa Brieva,Javier Caballero-Gómez,Angela Camacho,Vicente Fernández-Molera,Isabel Machuca,José C. Gómez-Villamandos,Antonio Rivero,Antonio Rivero-Juárez +11 more
TL;DR: The evidence showed that pigs reared on extensive farms are at a higher risk of HEV infection than those reared intensively, and the use of control measures could reduce the risk ofHEV infection in pigs and minimize therisk of zoonotic transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of hepatitis E virus infection in wild boars from Spain: a possible seasonal pattern?
Antonio Rivero-Juárez,María Ángeles Risalde,Mario Frias,Ignacio García-Bocanegra,Pedro Lopez-Lopez,David Cano-Terriza,Angela Camacho,Saúl Jiménez-Ruiz,José C. Gómez-Villamandos,Antonio Rivero +9 more
TL;DR: A relatively high prevalence of HEV infection in wild boar in the south of Spain is found, suggesting that prevalence may depend on the season when the animal is hunted, and the potential risk of zoonotic transmission could fluctuate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Persistence of hepatitis E virus in the liver of non-viremic naturally infected wild boar.
María Ángeles Risalde,Antonio Rivero-Juárez,F. Romero-Palomo,Mario Frias,Pedro Lopez-Lopez,David Cano-Terriza,Ignacio García-Bocanegra,Saúl Jiménez-Ruiz,Angela Camacho,Isabel Machuca,José C. Gómez-Villamandos,Antonio Rivero +11 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that low viral titers may persist in the liver of non-viremic individuals, giving thus the possibility of consumption of contaminated liver of animals diagnosed as HEV-negative in serum, is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatitis E Infection in HIV-Infected Patients
TL;DR: Despite the increasing knowledge about the pathogenesis, epidemiology and clinical impact of HEV infection, several major factors are faced by HIV-infected patients, including treatment recommendations, immunization and risk practices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of Hepatitis E Virus Infection in Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure.
TL;DR: The objective of this review was to analyze the role of acute hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection in patients with CLD, focusing on the impact of this infection on patient survival and prognosis in several world regions.
