Hepatitis C virus–related mortality was classified using the ICD-10 code for acute viral hepatitis C (B17.1) or chronic viral hepatitis C (B18.2) as an underlying or multiple cause of death (n = 261 858). We earlier demonstrated that although HCV is underreported on death certificate...
A 10-year nationwide populationbased cohort study of the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (TNHIRD) was conducted. ECC was defined by ICD-9-CM code 156 or ICD-O-3 code C23-24. Risk factors and HCV core protein expression were surveyed in patients with ECC from a tertiary...

Introduction of multiple ISDR mutations abrogated the ability of NS5A to bind to PKR in mammalian cells and to inhibit PKR in a yeast functional assay. These results indicate that mutations within the PKR-binding region of NS5A, including those within the ISDR, can disrupt the NS5A-PKR ...

We found that plasma levels of IL-6 were positively associated with CD4 T cell proportions of EM CD57, PD-1, and TIGIT, and TEM CD57, but they were negatively associated with CD4 and CD8 T cell proportions of CM KLRG-1 (Figure S2a) during HCV infection. Plasma levels of IP10 ...
The study design is based on the GPs review of all subjects, aged 18 or older, with already known diagnosis of HCV infection (ICD9-CM 070.41, 070.44, 070.51, 070.54, 070.7, 070.70, 070.71) or those with a high-risk profile for HCV infection, alive on 30 June 2019 (index date). Pati...
