magnitude of hepatitis c virus infection in india: prevalence in healthy blood donors, acute and chronic liver diseases.an enzyme immunoassay (eia) was developed in-house for the detection of anti-hepatitis c virus (hcv) antibody against the prevailing genotypes in india. the specific reactivity of the test was compared with commercial second and third-generation eias and reverse transcription nested polymerase chain reaction (rt-nested pcr). fifteen thousand nine hundred twenty-two healthy blood donors at the all india institute of medical sciences (aiims), new delhi, india, were screened for anti-hcv antibody. ...19979139079
analysis of genetic variability of indian isolates of hepatitis c virus.the degree of genetic variability among hepatitis c virus strains circulating in india is currently unknown. in order to get insight into this matter, sequence data obtained from the 5' non coding region from 8 patients from new delhi were compared with sequences from 16 hcv isolates from different geographic locations of india. the phylogenetic analysis of most prevalent genotypes revealed the presence of novel hcv variants in type 1 strains.200415168204
hepatitis b and c virus co-infections in human immunodeficiency virus positive north indian patients.to determine the prevalence of hepatitis b and c virus infections in human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) -positive patients at a tertiary care hospital in new delhi, india.200617106941
prevalence and trends of markers of hepatitis c virus, hepatitis b virus and human immunodeficiency virus in delhi blood donors: a hospital based study.transfusion transmitted infections (ttis) are a major problem associated with blood transfusion practices. a 4-year retrospective study from 2002 to 2005 was conducted at the blood bank of lady hardinge medical college and associated hospitals in new delhi, india. donors were evaluated for the prevalence of hcv, hbsag and hiv. a total of 28,956 healthy blood donors were tested, out of which 28,805 (99.48%) were replacement donors and 151 (0.52%) were voluntary donors. the proportion of voluntary ...200718032841
hepatitis b, hepatitis c and hiv co-infection at an antiretroviral centre in delhi.with an estimated 5.7 million people living with hiv/aids, india has the highest hiv/aids prevalence in the world, according to unaids. due to similar routes of transmission, co-infection of hiv with hepatitis b and hepatitis c viruses is a common event with significant clinical implications. the present study was undertaken to highlight the profile of patients of hiv with hbv/hcv co-infection, as literature from india on this topic is sparse. out of 1953 patients suffering from hiv registered a ...201121586511
polymorphism of tumor necrosis factor-a and interleukin-10 gene promoter region in chronic hepatitis c virus patients and their effect on pegylated interferon-a therapy response.the development and resolution of an inflammatory process is regulated by a complex interplay among cytokines that have pro- and anti-inflammatory effects. regulatory mechanisms that control the production of cytokines include genetic polymorphism in particular promoter/leader region. polymorphisms may directly or indirectly affect the binding of transcriptional factors, consequently increasing or decreasing the production of mrna, thus regulating cytokine production. a total of 70 hepatitis c v ...201121756957
