- * A review of patient data revealed a high male (59%) and adult (99.4%) demographic among 68,866 patients studied, with 34.5% receiving treatment; notably, untreated patients often exhibited signs of fibrosis/cirrhosis.
- * The findings highlight that chronic HBV infection is a significant global health problem with many patients still needing treatment, despite effective therapies being available.
Introduction: The prevalence of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is high in many countries; however, robust, real-world epidemiological data are lacking. This study describes the prevalence, characteristics, treatment patterns, and long-term clinical outcomes of patients with chronic HBV infection in the US, Germany, and Taiwan.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort analysis of three healthcare/insurance claims databases.
Background: Patient factors associated with urinary tract cancer can be used to risk stratify patients referred with haematuria, prioritising those with a higher risk of cancer for prompt investigation.
Objective: To develop a prediction model for urinary tract cancer in patients referred with haematuria.
Design, Setting, And Participants: A prospective observational study was conducted in 10 282 patients from 110 hospitals across 26 countries, aged ≥16 yr and referred to secondary care with haematuria.
