The most recent estimates of the number prevalent and incident sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in United States were for 2008. We provide updated 2018 using new methods.
We estimated the lifetime medical costs attributable to sexually transmitted infections (STIs) acquired in 2018, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).We of 2018 United States for 8 STIs: chlamydia, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, syphilis, genital herpes, papillomavirus (HPV), hepatitis B, and HIV. limited our analysis incurred treatment STIs related sequelae; we did not include other costs, such as STI prevention. For each STI, except HPV, calculated cost by multiplying number incident...
In the USA, HBV is one of leading causes chronic liver disease and cirrhosis a major cause cancer. We aimed to estimate prevalence past present infection, susceptibility vaccine-induced immunity hepatitis B among US population during 2013-2018.Prevalence estimates 95% CIs were analyzed using 2013-2018 data from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey. Serologic testing noninstitutionalized persons aged ≥ 6 years was used for classifying as total core antibody (anti-HBc), indicative...
Background. An estimated 20 000 new hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections occur each year in the United States. We describe results of enhanced surveillance for acute at 7 federally funded sites over a 6-year period.
Using national pharmacy claims data for 2014-2020, 843 329 persons were treated hepatitis C at least once. The proportion increased annually among aged <40 years, insured by Medicaid, and primary care providers. Monitoring treatment is essential to identify barriers access.
Importance Hepatitis C can be cured with direct-acting antivirals (DAAs), but Medicaid programs have implemented fibrosis, sobriety, and prescriber restrictions to control costs. Although are easing, understanding their association hepatitis treatment rates is crucial inform policies that increase access lifesaving treatment. Objective To estimate the of jurisdictional (50 states Washington, DC) DAA expansion number recipients filled prescriptions for DAAs. Design, Setting, Participants This...
Background Cervical dystonia is the most common form of focal and studied neurological condition in patients receiving botulinum toxin. In clinical trials toxin, there a placebo response, but this has not been systematically. Objectives A systematic review meta-analysis were conducted to assess compare peak duration response people with cervical toxin randomized, blinded controlled trials. Methods Three databases (Embase, PubMed, Scopus) two trial registers (Cochrane CENTRAL Cochrane...
Sexual transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) is common in the United States. In 2008, an estimated 50% HBV infections were attributed to sexual transmission. Among 21,600 acute that occurred 2018, proportion attributable transmissions unknown.Objectives this study estimate incidence and prevalence among US population 15 years older for 2013 2018. Incidence estimates calculated confirmed cases submitted Centers Disease Control Prevention from 14 states. A hierarchical algorithm defining...
Mortality associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been well-documented nationally, but an examination across regions and jurisdictions may inform health-care planning.
Abstract Background: Studies have found residency in long-term–care facilities (LTCFs) a risk factor for influenza and pneumonia demonstrated that vaccinations against these diseases reduce the of disease. However, rates are below Healthy People 2010 goals 90% LTCFs. During 1999–2002, multi-state demonstration project was conducted LTCFs to implement standing orders programs immunizations. Objective: Identify nursing home resident–specific characteristics associated with vaccination coverage...
Background. Knowledge of the genotypic distribution hepatitis B virus (HBV) facilitates epidemiologic tracking and surveillance HBV infection as well prediction its disease burden. In United States, genotyping studies have been conducted for chronic but not acute B. Methods. Serum samples were collected from patients with cases reported 6 counties that participated in Sentinel Counties Study Acute Viral Hepatitis 1999 through 2005. Polymerase chain reaction followed by nucleotide sequencing...
Chronic liver disease (CLD) is increasingly recognized as a major public health problem. However, in the United States, there are few nationally representative data on contribution of viral hepatitis an etiology CLD.We applied previously used International Classification Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification-based definition CLD cases to National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey and Hospital databases for 2006-2010. We estimated mean number visits per year, prevalence ratio by...
We reviewed news reports of hepatitis A virus (HAV)-infected food handlers in the United States from 1993 to 2011 using LexisNexis® search engine. Using U.S. reports, we identified 192 HAV-infected who worked while infectious; these individuals, 34 (18%) transmitted HAV restaurant patrons. News declined 2011. This analysis suggests that universal childhood vaccination contributed decrease handlers, but mandatory this group is unlikely be cost-effective.
In 2009, the CDC National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP) initiated online, interactive NCHHSTP Atlas. The goal of Atlas is to strengthen capacity monitor diseases overseen by illustrate demographic, spatial, temporal variation in disease patterns. includes HIV, AIDS, viral hepatitis, sexually transmitted disease, tuberculosis surveillance data, aims provide a single point access meet analytical data dissemination needs NCHHSTP. To accomplish this goal,...
A national estimate of births to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive women can help public health programs plan surveillance, educational, and outreach activities improve identification management at-risk infants. Stratifying mothers by country birth allows for the application region-specific HBsAg prevalence estimates, which more precisely number The objective our study was HBsAg-positive in United States with granularity than previous models.We developed a model that incorporated...
In Pennsylvania, reporting of viral hepatitis B (HBV) and C (HCV) infections to CDC has been mandated since 2002. Underreporting HBV HCV long identified as a problem. Few reports have described the accuracy state surveillance case registries for recording clinically-confirmed cases infections, or characteristics populations associated with lower rates reporting.
The objective of this single-center study was to compare non-compliance events in vulnerable populations children and adults participating neurologic research protocols.
