TL;DR: Seroepidemiological and molecular epidemiological analyses of HCV in Surabaya, Indonesia found that impaired immune responses of hemodialyzed patients might be responsible for the apparently decreased hepatocytic injury caused by infection with HCV type 1.

TL;DR: Investigating the complete genome sequence of 22 strains from Papua and subjected them to molecular evolutionary analysis confirmed by complete sequence analysis that two novel HBV subgenotypes, HBV/C6 andHBV/D6, are prevalent in Papua, Indonesia.

TL;DR: Investigation of the serologic status and virologic characteristics of hepatitis B virus among the children in East Java found a single amino substitution in the S region was frequently found.

TL;DR: No correlation was observed between GBV-C/HGV viremia and serum alanine aminotransferase levels in the populations tested, suggesting the possibility that the virus can be classified into at least five genetic groups and does not cause apparent liver injury.

TL;DR: It is suggested that HBV and HCV infection is common among hemodialysis patients in Yogyakarta, and probably occurs through nosocomial infection, and implementation of strict infection‐control programs is necessary in he modialysis units in Indonesia.
