New findings regarding the epidemic history and population dynamics of Japan‐indigenous genotype 3 hepatitis E virus inferred by molecular evolution
18 Dec 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Since previous studies have investigated the population dynamics of Japan-indigenous genotype 3 hepatitis E virus (HEV) using virus sequences, more nucleotide sequences have been determined, and new techniques have been developed for such analysis. AIMS: To prevent future hepatitis E epidemic in Japan, this study aimed to elucidate the cause of past HEV expansion. METHODS: The epidemic history of...
