Abstract excerpt
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infection accelerates the progression of HBV-related liver diseases. HBV basic core promoter (BCP)/pre-core (preC) gene mutations may be one of the most important risk factors. In this study, a total of 230 patients were recruited, and 199 patients whose HBV BCP/preC gene were successfully amplified and sequenced, including 99 HIV/HBV co-infected and...
