Title: [Delta infection in hepatitis B]. Author: Botsvadze ESh, Kvitashvili AA, Katsitadze TK, Aleksishvili MM, Kartoziia NG. Journal: Sov Med; 1989; (2):8-10. PubMed ID: 2727788.

Anti-delta were detected in 25.2% of 111 patients with HB virus infections. The course of the disease was more severe in cases of combined infection, and delta-superinfection was associated with the clinical picture of CAH, suggesting that combined B + delta infection may be producing a profound liver damage.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
