Usefulness of serum HBV RNA levels for predicting antiviral response to entecavir treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis B.
J Gastroenterol
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterology, Graduate School of Biomedical and Health Sciences, Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan.
Background: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) RNA is an important serum biomarker of hepatic covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) transcriptional activity; however, its clinical characteristics remain unclear. This study evaluated the clinical utility of HBV RNA levels in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).
Methods: We studied 87 CHB patients with serum HBV DNA levels ≥ 5.
Retreatment of patients with chronic hepatitis C, subtype 3a, and cirrhosis, who previously failed a regimen containing second-generation NS5A inhibitors with sofosbuvir + glecaprevir/pibrentasvir and ribavirin for 16-24 weeks.

The outcomes of retreatment patients infected with hepatitis C virus genotype 3, cirrhosis, with velpatasvir may be affected by treatment failure with velpatasvir. The efficacy of SOF+GLE/PIB+RIB 16-24 weeks of treatment has been shown. The presence of NS5A resistance-associated substitution mutations, including Y93H, and the number and regimens of the past failed therapy do not influence the likelihood of achieving sustained virological response.

Division of Gastroenterohepatology, Department of Internal Medicine, İstanbul Faculty of Medicine, İstanbul University, İstanbul, Türkiye.
Background/aims: Elevated intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) can lead to intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and, in severe cases, abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) in patients with cirrhosis and ascites. Paracentesis reduces IAP and improves abdominal perfusion. Intra-abdominal hypertension can also trigger acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) in decompensated cirrhosis.

Department of Medicine, Huddinge, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background/aims: Epidemiological data on mortality in autoimmune liver diseases (AILDs) are scarce. We examined all-cause and cancer-related mortality in individuals with AILD from Sweden.
Methods: We identified 9654 individuals with AILD (3342 with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), 3751 with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), and 2561 with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC)) using national Swedish registries between 2001 and 2020.
The Burden of Hepatitis B and C in Asia, 1990-2019: An Update Analysis From the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019.

February 2025
Department of Gastroenterology, The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University, Luzhou, China.
Aim: This research was aimed to uncover the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) related diseases burden in Asia over the past 3 decades, estimating from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019.
Methods: Age-standardised rates, case numbers of prevalence, disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), incidence and deaths with 95% uncertainty intervals (UI) for HBV/HCV-related diseases from 1990 to 2019 were derived from GBD 2019 database, with the estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) calculated. Our analysis also encompassed the association between the Sociodemographic Index (SDI) and the burden of HBV/HCV-related diseases, future disease burden predictions in six selected countries and various risk factors.
