| clinical presentation and genotype of hepatitis delta in karachi. | to assess the clinical presentation and genotypes of delta hepatitis in local population. | 2007 | 17552010 |
| comparative analysis of disease activity in patients of chronic hepatitis b virus, with and without superinfection with hepatitis d virus; an experience at tertiary care centre. | the hepatitis d virus super-infection contributes significantly to the morbidity and mortality of hepatitis b virus infection. the objectives were to describe the incidence of hepatitis d virus and comparative analysis of disease activity in patients of chronic hepatitis b virus, with and without super-infection of hepatitis d virus. | 2008 | 19385455 |
| frequency of hepatitis c and d super infection in patients with hepatitis b related complex liver disorders. | to determine the frequency of super infection of hepatitis c and d in patients with hepatitis b related complex liver disorders and the distribution of hbv genotypes in these patients. | 2009 | 19889265 |
| frequency of hepatitis d virus infection in hepatitis b surface antigen-positive liver diseases. | to determine the frequency of hdv among hepatitis b surface antigen (hbsag)-positive liver disorders. | 2011 | 21276380 |
| true prevalence of twin hdv-hbv infection in pakistan: a molecular approach. | hepatitis delta virus (hdv) infects only patients that are already infected by hepatitis b virus (hbv) because this is sub satellite virus which depends on and propagate only in the presence of hbv. hdv causes co-infection or super infection with sever complication as compared to only hbv infection. no study on molecular level on hdv is available from this region; therefore, the aim of this study was to found out the molecular epidemiology of hdv (as a co-infection with hbv) in different geograp ... | 2011 | 21888671 |
| frequency and comparative analysis of hapatitis d in petients seeking treatment for hepatitis b. | to find the frequency of hepatitis 'd' in patients of hepatitis 'b' seeking treatment and to compare clinical and biochemical features in patients harboring hdv with those who are not. | 2006 | 16945230 |
| virological and clinical characteristics of hepatitis delta virus in south asia. | there is a paucity of data on the impact of hepatitis d virus (hdv) in patients with hepatitis b virus (hbv) infection from south asia. we studied the impact of hdv co-infection on virological and clinical characteristics. | 2011 | 21689416 |
| phylogenetic analysis of hdv isolates from hbsag positive patients in karachi, pakistan. | in spite of a high occurrence of hepatitis delta in the province of sindh in pakistan, no genetic study of hepatitis delta virus (hdv) isolates from this region was carried out. the aim of this study is to analyze the genetic proximity within local hdv strains, and relationship with other clades of hdv, using phylogenetic analysis. | 2012 | 22894717 |
