Seroprevalence Hepatitis E Infection in Healthy Blood Donors
Hepatitis EThis is a HEV seroprevalence in the health donors in the Canton Ticino study. The pre-donation sampling pouch of each blood donor coming form the Cantone Ticino region will be collected and tested for HEV serology (IgM and IgG).
Change of Glucose Metabolism and Fibrosis Markers in Patients With Hepatitis C Under Treatment With...
Glucose Metabolism DisordersLiver Fibrosis1 moreChronic hepatitis C infection is associated with changes of glucose metabolism end increased frequency of impaired glucose tolerance. This might be a additional risk factor for disease and fibrosis progression. The study aims to evaluate whether a therapy with direct-acting antiviral agents leading to a sustained virologic response directly impacts parameters reflecting glucose metabolism and fibrosis.
Treatment on HBeAg Positive or HBeAg Negative in Chronic Hepatitis B
CHRONIC HEPATITIS BPhyllanthus Urinaria - Adenosma Glutinosum - Eclipta Prostrata - Ascorbic Acid combination plus Tenofovir in treatment of acute and chronic hepatitis B. Method the combination of drugs derived from natural and artificial medicaments. Has stronger effect on immune system, effective good against HBV replication. This is a substantial new insight into the pathogenesis of disease, with a clear path toward clinical application, or which would lead to a substantial advance and perfect in management or public health policy.

Exposure to Hepatitis B VirusThe purpose of this study is to determine whether preemptive nucleoside analogue therapy or regular virologic monitoring is the preferred method in management patients with prior exposure to hepatitis B vius (HBV) and undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
Prognostic Indicators as Provided by the EPIC ClearView
Coronary Artery DiseaseCongestive Heart Failure26 moreThe objective of this study is to determine whether the finger tip images captured by the EPIC ClearView device, when analyzed via the ClearView software, produce a Response Scale that characterizes trends consistent with known diagnoses identified by medical doctors. Specifically, the investigators hypothesize that the organ system involving any of a series of known active diagnoses will be identified in the EPIC ClearView Response Scale report with the intention of providing potential triage capabilities.
Three-year Follow-up Study of Subjects Who Participated in a Previous Lambda (BMS-914143) Chronic...
Hepatitis CThe primary purpose of this study is to determine whether the hepatitis C virus continues to remain unable to be detected in subjects who were previously treated with BMS-914143 and achieved sustained virologic response
Effects of Short-term Atorvastatin Treatment on Vaccination Efficacy in Nonresponder Persons to...
Hepatitis BVaccination FailureThe purpose of this study is to determine whether short-term Atorvastatin can increase the immunity response to hepatitis B vaccination in vaccine Nonresponders.
Pharmacoeconomic Study Assessing the Cost of Chronic Hepatitis C Treatment With Peginterferon Alfa-2b...
Hepatitis CChronic1 moreThe objective of the study is to evaluate the costs associated with peginterferon alfa-2b (PegIntron) plus ribavirin (Rebetol) treatment for chronic hepatitis C in the Czech Republic. Only costs associated with rescue medication, concomitant therapy, disease monitoring, and medical intervention costs recognized by the treating institution as treatment-related expenses will be included in the analysis. The study will also evaluate the correlation between hepatitis C virus (HCV) therapy-related costs with ribavirin dosing and participant history.
Compliance of HCV Genotype 1 Infected Patients Receiving PegIntron/Rebetol and a Patient Assistance...
Hepatitis CChronic1 moreEnrolled patients will be recruited to two parallel groups during therapy for Hepatitis C. Patients in the first one will receive a patient assistance program, and patients in the second group will not. All patients will receive PegIntron and Rebetol according to label.
