Several studies have reported varying prevalence rates for hepatitis B and C viruses and HIV among undergraduate students in Nigerian universities.
Methodology: A cross-sectional descriptive prevalence study of hepatitis B and C viruses and HIV among students at Federal University of Health Sciences, Azare conducted on the 2nd of December 2023.
Hepatitis C Virus Seroprevalence, Incidence, and Screening Patterns in Ontario Preexposure Prophylaxis Users.

January 2025
Division of Infectious Diseases, St Michael's Hospital, Toronto, Canada.
Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has emerged as a sexually transmitted infection in gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBM). We estimated the seroprevalence and incidence of HCV infection and examined patterns of HCV testing among GBM using human immunodeficiency virus preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in Ontario, Canada.
Methods: We analyzed data from the Ontario PrEP Cohort Study (ON-PrEP), a prospective cohort of PrEP users from 10 Ontario clinics.
Impact of Policy Changes Expanding Access to Direct-Acting Antivirals on Hepatitis C Virus-Related Hospitalizations in People With HIV: A Population-Based Study.

Li Ka Shing Knowledge Institute, Unity Health Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Background: The burden of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related hospitalizations is substantial, particularly among people with HIV and HCV. In Ontario, Canada, use of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) increased following policies removing fibrosis-stage restrictions and approving of pangenotypic agents in 2017 and 2018, respectively. We examined the impact of expanded DAA access on HCV-related hospitalizations in people with HIV.

Effect of sofosbuvir and daclatasvir treatment on the blood indices in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus.
Arab J Gastroenterol
January 2025
Endemic Medicine Department, Faculty of Medicine, Cairo University, Cairo, Egypt.
Background And Study Aims: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a significant problem in Egypt, as it is associated with various hematological disorders, both benign and malignant. In Egypt, direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) serve as the principal therapy for HCV to achieve a sustained virological response (SVR). This study investigated the effects of sofosbuvir (SOF) and daclatasvir (DCV) on HCV patients with benign blood index abnormalities and examined the correlation between these abnormalities and SVR.
