Chronic Hepatitis B And C: Basic Science To Clinical Applications e-bog

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 Therefore, this book will provide more in-depth coverage of what are presented as "e;unpublished results"e; and "e;data not shown"e; in journal articles.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 "e;natural course,"e; Dr. Shih on "e;virion release,"e; Dr. Michael Lai on "e;lymphotropism of HCV,"e; etc. Overall, the book will offer useful information at the cutting age.Sample Chapter(s)
