Direct-acting antivirals (DAA) positively affect depression and cognitive function in patients with chronic hepatitis C.

PloS one
The aim of the study was to determine how depression and cognitive dysfunction in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are affected by treatment with direct-acting antivirals (DAA). Fifty-two chronic hepatitis C patients underwent ...

Fibrosis and inflammatory activity diagnosis of chronic hepatitis C based on extreme learning machine.

Scientific reports
The traditional diagnosis of chronic hepatitis C usually relies on liver biopsy. Diagnosing chronic hepatitis C based on serum indices provides a non-invasive way to determine the stage of chronic hepatitis C without liver biopsy. In this paper, we p...

AI-Safe-C score: Assessing liver-related event risks in patients without cirrhosis after successful direct-acting antiviral treatment.

Journal of hepatology
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) have considerably improved chronic hepatitis C (HCV) treatment; however, follow-up after sustained virological response (SVR) typically neglects the risk of liver-related events (LREs). This study in...

Artificial intelligence-assisted identification and retrieval of chronic hepatitis C patients lost to follow-up in the health area of Pontevedra and O Salnés (Spain).

Gastroenterologia y hepatologia
OBJECTIVE: Direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) to treat hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection offer an opportunity to eliminate the disease. This study aimed to identify and relink to care HCV patients previously lost to medical follow-up in the health area ...

Hepatitis C viral load and genotypes among Nigerian subjects with chronic infection and implication for patient management: a retrospective review of data.

The Pan African medical journal
INTRODUCTION: Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is highly infectious with no currently available vaccine. Prior to treatment, it is recommended to confirm HCV infection with either quantitative or qualitative nucleic acid test. Access to these assays in Nigeri...

Machine learning models to predict disease progression among veterans with hepatitis C virus.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) algorithms provide effective ways to build prediction models using longitudinal information given their capacity to incorporate numerous predictor variables without compromising the accuracy of the risk prediction. C...

Data Mining and Machine Learning Algorithms Using IL28B Genotype and Biochemical Markers Best Predicted Advanced Liver Fibrosis in Chronic Hepatitis C.

Japanese journal of infectious diseases
IL28B single nucleotide polymorphism (rs12979860) is an etiology-independent predictor of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related hepatic fibrosis. Data mining is a method of predictive analysis which can explore tremendous volumes of information from health...
