Hepatitis C (HCV) genotype and viral titer distribution among Argentinean hemophilic patients in the presence or absence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection.

Abstract excerpt

Hepatitis C (HCV) infection is frequent among hemophilic patients treated with non-inactivated factor-concentrates. Both HCV genotype and viral load have been suggested to be important prognostic markers of disease progression and treatment outcome.
