- Global epidemiology of hepatitis C virus infection: New estimates of age‐specific antibody to HCV seroprevalence (2013, background): “infection remains; prevalence is relatively high in all age groups, and increases steadily with age.(26) Agegroup of peak prevalence varies by region, and is expected to also vary by country depending on local epidemiology of HCV transmission.”
- The global burden of hepatitis C (2009, background): “Western Europe, US) and is becoming a major source of infection in transitional economy and developing countries, accounting for 40% or more of those infected (12).”
- The Natural History of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection (2006, background): “Chronic hepatitis C is the most common cause of chronic liver disease and cirrhosis, and the most common indication for liver transplantation in the United States (U.S.), Australia, and most of Europe.”
- The contributions of hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections to cirrhosis and primary liver cancer worldwide. (2006, background): “These variations tended to reflect known patterns of HBV and HCV infection endemicity [99,100].”
- Patterns of hepatitis C prevalence and seroconversion in hemodialysis units from three continents: the DOPPS. (2003, result): “It is likely that differences in the underlying prevalence of HCV infection in the general population of these countries contributed to the differences we observed [5, 26, 27].”
