The Revista de Investigación Clínica (RIC) was established in 1948. It has been published continuously for 73 years.

Asociación Mexicana de Hepatología A.C. Clinical guideline on hepatitis B.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection continues to be a worldwide public health problem.

Because HBV is preventable through vaccination, its universal application should be emphasized.
