Hepatitis-A: Review on Current and Future Scenario

Abstract

Hepatitis is familiarly termed as inflammation to the liver. It can be incurred by both infectious and non-infectious ways. Infectious type may be caused by certain parasitic organisms, fungus, bacteria and virus. Non Infectious ways include metabolic diseases, autoimmune disorders, alcohols and certain drugs. Several types of hepatitis like Hepatitis type A (HAV), Hepatitis type B (HBV), Hepatitis type C (HCV), Hepatitis type D (HDV), Hepatitis type E (HEV). Hepatitis A and E are acute infection which can be cured in a lesser time whereas the other types are chronic and take long term medication for recovery. The present study describes in detail about the transmission mode, treatment options and preventive measures for all the types of hepatitis infections. A brief mention of hepatitis X and Hepatitis G was also produced.

An Investigation of Canine Hepatic Dysfunction Using Different Diagnostic Methods

“…Liver is engaged in different metabolic tasks throughout the body, any factor that altering its normal physiology often causes hepatic damage. Hepatic ailments are often seen in older animals with acquired diseases and in younger animals with both acquired and congenital disease (Pallavi et al, 2017) Hepatic insufficiency refers to the liver's failure to perform its metabolic, excretory and detoxifying functions due to a drop in the number of functional hepatocytes or a change in their normal activity (Yuki et al, 2017). Hepatic dysfunction produces different clinical signs among dogs such as inappetence, vomition, diarrhoea, neurological proble, high body temperature, alteration in clotting mechanism, icterus, ascites, increasing urination and water intake (Verma et al, 2023;Sumathi et al, 2017).…”

Analysis of Transmission of Hepatitis C Viruses: Dental vs. Surgical Procedures

“…Out of one hundred 90 million population of Pakistan, almost ten million people are infected with HCV. According to estimation, HCV seroprevalence and viremia-related prevalence among adults have been reported as 6.7% and 5.8% in Pakistan correspondingly [4,5].Another analysis points out that 2% of anesthetists received HCV infection due to accidental inoculation [6]. The presence of Hepatitis C Virus RNA in saliva and salivary glands of HCVpositive and sialadenitis patients has been reported by numerous studies [7].…”
