Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: We compared acute hepatitis E (AH-E) and acute hepatitis A (AH-A) to investigate the epidemiology, clinical features, and prognosis of AH-E caused by an indigenous hepatitis E virus (HEV) in Japan. METHODS: We enrolled 58 patients diagnosed with AH-A or AH-E (32 men and 26 women; age, 20-72 years) from December 1997 to October 2002. Phylogenetic analysis of the partial 412-nucleotide sequence of open...
