Infection with hepatitis A virus (HAV) causes a highly contagious illness that can lead to serious morbidity and occasional mortality. Although the overall incidence of HAV has been declining since the introduction of the HAV vaccine, there have been an increasing number of outbreaks within the
Contamination of fresh water bodies by human enteric viruses from wastewater discharge is a well-established phenomenon. Here we propose a model of viral contamination of rivers based on acute gastroenteritis epidemiology and assess how well it can simulate in situ experimental monitoring.
Hepatitis A, also known as infectious hepatitis, remains one of the more commonly transmitted types of viral hepatitis in the United States. Given the high prevalence of this illness, clinicians need to be aware not only about the clinical manifestations of this disease, but also about the special
Hepatitis A occurred in five registered nurses, a licensed practical nurse, and a recently discharged patient at a community hospital; one of these seven was asymptomatic. All had been exposed to a woman with confirmed hepatitis A who had undergone elective cholecystectomy and who had had vomiting,
OBJECTIVE
To study the cholestatic forms of viral hepatitis A that are described as unusual and very rare, but that are of great significance because of their severe course and high morbidity rate.
METHODS
We describe herein 17 cases of hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection with pronounced cholestasis
BACKGROUND
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) epidemics occurred repeatedly in Iceland in the early 20th century, but since then few cases have been reported and no epidemics since 1952. The latest Icelandic studies on HAV from around 1990 showed low incidence of infection and de-- creasing prevalence of
BACKGROUND
Hepatitis A is the most common form of acute viral hepatitis worldwide, especially in children. The clinical severity of the hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection varies from an asymptomatic infection to a fulminant disease. In this study, we aimed to evaluate characteristics of pediatric
Recent outbreaks of viral hepatitis A in non-endemic European countries and the potential outbreak risk in susceptible populations has led us to evaluate the clinical characteristics of children hospitalised with hepatitis A. Retrospective study included 118 children (68 boys and 50 girls) with the
Incidence of hepatitis A in Wales is low (average of 0.48/100,000 inhabitants from 2004-2015). We describe a community outbreak of hepatitis A involving 3 schools (primary and secondary) in South Wales between March and June 2016 and reflect on the adequacy of the control measures used. Anyone in
A party of 57 people dined together in a restaurant in Hamamatsu City on December 11, 2001. The next day, 22 of them developed symptoms of acute gastroenteritis, such as diarrhea, vomiting, and fever. Examination of 4 fecal specimens from these patients by ELISA for Norovirus (Norwalk-like virus,
Hepatitis A is a common viral infection with a benign course but in rare cases can progress to acute liver failure. It usually presents with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, jaundice, anorexia, or asymptomatically, but it can also present atypically with relapsing hepatitis and prolonged
We identified a case of acute Hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection linked to cannabis use. The local Public Health department received report of a man in his mid-20s with a classic presentation of hepatitis - jaundice, abdominal pain, vomiting, general malaise, and dark urine - as well as elevated
We studied an outbreak of hepatitis A in a day-care center in a rural community where less than 7 per cent of the population possessed anti-HAV. Serotesting for IgM specific antibody to hepatitis A virus identified 78 cases in center attendees, staff, and families. Thirty-five per cent of the center
OBJECTIVE
This investigation was a response to an outbreak of hepatitis A in rural China in 2013. The objectives were to identify the pattern of transmission and the risk factors.
METHODS
A probable case was defined as an individual in/nearby the village of the outbreak with jaundice and/or an
OBJECTIVE
A hepatitis A outbreak in a primary school was reported by Gan County Center for Disease Control and Province (CDC) and an investigation was conducted to identify the possible source of infection and risk factors for transmission.
METHODS
A probable case was defined as having onset of
