Chronic Hepatitis B And C: Basic Science To Clinical Applications

The scope of the book is very broad, covering a wide range of areas in HBV/HDV and HCV research, including both basic and clinical science. The selected topics range from epidemiology, immunology, molecular virology and oncology, to clinical therapy.Chronic Hepatitis B and C consists of 14 chapters, each being a review of a special topic on HBV or HCV. While review articles on a special topic can be found in periodical journals, they tend to be more restricted in presentation. Therefore, this book will provide more in-depth coverage of what are presented as śunpublished resultsť and śdata not shownť in journal articles. Furthermore, several authors in this book do not write review articles regularly. Some authors wrote reviews on a specific topic regularly, but they tried a new topic in this book (e.g., Dr. YF Liaw on śnatural course,ť Dr. Shih on śvirion release,ť Dr. Michael Lai on ślymphotropism of HCV,ť etc. â‹Ż). Overall, the book will offer useful information at the cutting age.Sample Chapter(s)
