HCV Ab titer and ALT level indicate occult hepatitis C virus infection in treatment-naive HCV Ab-positive and HCV Ab-negative patients: a 3-year prospective cohort study
ABSTRACT The phenotype of occult hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (OCI) in anti-HCV treatment-naive patients remains elusive. A prospective 3-year cohort study of 218 anti-HCV treatment-naive patients was conducted. OCI was defined as positive HCV RNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) o...
