Journal ArticleDOI
Seroprevalence of hepatitis E virus differs in Dutch and first generation migrant populations in Amsterdam, the Netherlands: a cross-sectional study.
TL;DR: Within the multi-ethnical capital city of Amsterdam the HEV seroprevalence in first generation migrant populations differed from each other and from the autochthonous Dutch population, suggesting that younger migrants got more often infected in their country of origin than in the Netherlands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extrahepatic manifestations related to hepatitis E virus infection and their triggering mechanisms.
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the extrahepatic manifestations related to HEV infection and their triggering mechanisms is presented, where the authors consider HEV infections as a systemic disease, rather than solely a liver disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tahir Iqbal,Muhammad Idrees,Liaqat Ali,Abrar Hussain,Muhammad Ali,Sadia Butt,Muhammad Yousaf,Muhammad Farooq Sabar +7 more
TL;DR: The study suggest that both the human HEV strains were closely related to the Sar-55 but different from the Abb-2B and 87-Pakistan-B HEV isolates sharing 88-91% sequence identity to Pakistani isolate Sar- 55.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transmission of enteric non-A, non-B hepatitis virus in Macaca mulatta monkeys by intraportal route: subsequent passages of HEV virus.
TL;DR: All monkeys developed acute hepatitis, as evidenced by transient elevation of aminotransferases, histopathological changes in the liver, development of antibodies aggregating 27–34 nm VLP and excretion of 27– 34 nm V LP in stools.

R. E. Antia,Adewole Augustine Adekola,Afusat Jagun Jubril,O. G. Ohore,Benjamin Obukowho Emikpe +4 more
TL;DR: The high HEV seroprevalence and age-based odds of HEV-exposure in pigs in Ibadan, Nigeria is underscored.

Transfusion-associated hepatitis not due to viral hepatitis type A or B.
TL;DR: In this paper, 22 patients who had an episode of transfusion-associated hepatitis not positive for hepatitis B antigen were examined for development of antibody to heaptitis A and B antigens, cytomegalovirus and Epstein-Barr virus.

Hemagglutination Assay for Antigen and Antibody Associated with Viral Hepatitis
Girish N. Vyas,N. R. Shulman +1 more
TL;DR: The hemagglutination test has the sensitivity and rapidity of the best tests available, is simpler to perform, and lends itself to large-scale screening of blood donors.

TL;DR: Hepatitis was transmitted by serum derived from patients with chronic as well as acute hepatitis, strongly suggesting a chronic carrier state for the agent responsible for non-A, non-B hepatitis.
