Ramalho Fernando

Abstract excerpt

The mechanism by which the hepatitis C virus (HCV) causes chronic, progressive liver damage is unknown. Factors other than the virus itself have been implicated. The role of liver steatosis has been recently studied. Hepatic steatosis is a common histological finding occurring in more 50% of patients with chronic hepatitis C. Both host and viral factors have been demonstrated to play an important role in its...
