HCC surveillance after SVR in patients with F3/F4 fibrosis
TL;DR: HCC risk is one of the most important factors that should inform decisions of whether and how to screen for HCC and promising strategies for estimating HCC risk include simplified scoring systems, liver elastography and multivariable H CC risk calculators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost-effectiveness of Universal Hepatitis C Virus Screening of Pregnant Women in the United States.
TL;DR: Universal screening for HCV among pregnant women in the U.S. is cost effective and should be recommended nationally, despite new AASLD/IDSA guidelines recommending screening this group not recommended.

Natural history of liver fibrosis progression in patients with chronic hepatitis C
TL;DR: The host factors of ageing, alcohol consumption, and male sex have a stronger association with fibrosis progression than virological factors in HCV infection.

TL;DR: This paper aims to demonstrate the efforts towards in-situ applicability of EMMARM, as to provide real-time information about concrete mechanical properties such as E-modulus and compressive strength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sampling variability of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis C.
TL;DR: It is suggested that a length of at least 25 mm is necessary to evaluate fibrosis accurately with a semiquantitative score, because variability in the distribution of fibrosis within the liver is a major limitation when using more accurate methods such as automated image analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intraobserver and Interobserver Variations in Liver Biopsy Interpretation in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C
TL;DR: It is revealed that certain features of major importance in assessing disease activity show significant observer variation, including the acceptable degree of concordance of the Knodell index, whereas other numerical items displayed substantial observer variations.
