Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) constitutes a major public health issue around the world, especially in developing countries like Pakistan. In this study, we assessed outcome of interferon (INF) treatment in chronic hepatitis C patients categorized by gender, age, and viral load. METHODS: In this study, 750 HCV positive patients with genotype 3 were selected, out of which 616 completed the entire treatment....
