There are two subtypes of hepatitis B virus genotype A (HBV/A) and they provisionally designated Aa (“a” standing for Africa/Asia) Ae (“e” Europe). In a case-control study, 78 HBV/Aa, 78HBV/Ae, 78HBV/D carriers from several countries were compared. The prevalence HBe antigen (HBeAg) in serum was significantly lower HBV/Aa than HBV/Ae (31% vs. 49%; P = .033), with difference more obvious the aged 30 years or younger (34% 67%; .029). HBV DNA levels (median, 3.46 log copies/mL; 95% CI,...
Complete nucleotide sequences of 19 hepatitis B virus (HBV) isolates genotype A (HBV/A) were determined and analysed along with those 20 previously reported HBV/A isolates. Of the isolates, six including three from Japan USA clustered 14 Western countries. The remaining 13 four Philippines, two India, Nepal Bangladesh South Africa Malawi. Due to distinct epidemiological distributions, in HBV was classified into subtype Ae (e for Europe), that other Aa (a Asia Africa) provisionally. HBV/Aa...
Serum alanine transaminase (ALT), hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level and age are used in the evaluation of chronic (CHB).We designed this study to evaluate liver histology with ALT its relation HBV DNA.During period October 2006 July 2009, 499 CHB patients were included detectable at PCR. Of these, 181 had normal ALT, 200 [>(1 × ULN) < (2 ULN)] 118 ≥ 2 ULN labelled as Group 1, 3 respectively.A strong positive correlation was found between histological activity index (HAI) fibrosis. However,...
Fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) is a devastating complication of acute viral hepatitis, leading to death in most cases. The etiology and predictors outcome differ according the geographical region. This study was conducted with aim evaluating etiology, complications, FHF Bangladesh.In this prospective study, we included 67 consecutive cases presenting Department Hepatology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, between November 2003 May 2008. Thirty-nine patients were male 28...
<b>Background/Aim:</b> Ascariasis is a common parasitic infestation in Asia and Latin America. The most serious presentation biliary pancreatic ascariasis (BPA). aim of the present study was to compare clinical BPA with dead worms that living worms. <b> Materials Methods: </b> We included 138 consecutive cases occured during period January 2005 July 2009. All patients had endoscopically proven consisting or Comparison done by chi-square independent t tests. Results:</b> age (mean ± SD) 36.8...
<b>Background/Aim:</b> Bangladesh is a densely populated country with intermediate endemicity for chronic hepatitis B (CHB). The aim of the present study was to evaluate biochemical, virological and histological character CHB patients examine relationship between these indices. <b> Materials Methods:</b> One thousand twenty-two fulfilled our inclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria were (1) HBsAg positive at least 6 months, (2) HBeAg-positive or negative (3) virus (HBV) DNA positive. Patients...
Background and aims: Parenteral route is the principal mode of transmission Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). Health care workers are at risk infection with HCV. Aim study was to estimate seroprevalence HCV amongst health identify possible factors infection. Materials Methods: 355 were selected from July 2005 June 2006 working in different departments Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Among them 43.5% doctors, 32.1% nurses, 11.8% ward boys, 5.9% operation theatre staffs...
Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is the condition where fat accumulates in liver without significant ingestion of alcohol. NAFLD has become one most common conditions throughout world. At dawn history it was thought that disease obese individual but lean patients are increasingly detected to have NAFLD. It seems insulin resistance central pathogenesis In addition, oxidative stress and cytokines important contributing factors, resulting steatosis progressive damage genetically...
Introduction: The aim of this study is to compare Knodell and HAI scores in patients with wild type precore/core promoter mutant CHB see if there any difference severity liver injury between these two types HBV. Methods: We did percutaneous biopsies 155 patients. 102 (65.8%) them were infected HBV the rest 53 (34.2%) CHB. Results: 11/53 (20.8%) had moderate severe CH (HAI score 8–18). In contrast, was seen 19/102 (18.6%) Fibrosis >2 15/53 (28.3%) as opposed 20/102 (19.6%) Conclusion: shows...
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is an established cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and associated with poor prognosis. High HBV deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) load has been identified in HCC hepatitis surface antigen-positive patients.This study was done the Department Hepatology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh, from January 2006 to December 2007. Thirty patients infection-related were enrolled. Another 30 HBV-related liver diseases without analyzed as...
Ascitic fluid Complement 3 (C3) concentration is the most important factor to offer local defense against infection of ascitic fluid.
