In tests on hundreds of patients, both teams of researchers found that more people who were given weekly injections of peginterferon alfa-2a responded better to the treatment than volunteers given the older, shorter-acting form known as interferon alfa-2a.

Hepatitis can be mild and last for a short time or be very serious and cause liver failure and death. What causes hepatitis? Hepatitis is caused by a virus (a germ that causes sickness). Other things can harm the liver, such as alcohol or drug abuse and long-term use of some medications.

Return to Communicable Disease Home Page From the ... What's New Hepatitis A (infectious hepatitis) What is hepatitis A? Hepatitis A (formerly known as infectious hepatitis) is a liver disease caused by a specific virus. The disease is fairly common; more than 2,500 cases are reported in New York State each year. Who gets hepatitis A? Anyone can get hepatitis A, but it occurs more frequently in children, people travelling abroad, and men who have sex with men. How is the virus spread? The hepatitis A virus enters through the mouth, multiplies in the body and is passed in the feces. The virus can then be carried on an infected person s hands and can be spread by direct contact, or by consuming food or drink that has been handled by the individual. In some cases, it can be spread by consuming contaminated water. What are the symptoms of hepatitis A? The symptoms of hepatitis A may include fatigue, poor appetite, fever and vomiting. Urine may become darker in color, and then jaundice (a yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes) may appear. The disease is rarely fatal and most people recover in a few weeks without any complications. Infants and young children tend to have very mild symptoms and are less likely to develop jaundice than are older children and adults. Not everyone who is infected will have all of the symptoms. How soon do symptoms appear?

Sponsor: Overlæge, dr.med. Jens D. Lundgren Hepatitis (leverbetændelse) Hvad er hepatitis ? Når leveren bliver smittet med mikroorganismer eller påvirket af medicin (mest frygtet er overdosis af paracetamol), over måde stort alkohol indtag eller giftige levnedsmidler (fx svampe) udvikles der en betændelse i leveren. Der findes en række virus arter som specifikt rammer leveren – de såkaldte hepatitis virus. Der findes en række af disse hepatitis virus, som benævnes alfabetisk, altså A, B, C, etc. Selv om virus navnene ligner hinanden, er forløbet af hepatiten yderst forskelligt, og det er væsentligt at holde dem adskilt når man snakker om en virus hepatitis. Hvad er symptomerne på hepatitis ? Det klassiske tegn er gulsot (icterus). Gulsoten kan enten udvikle sig lige når hepatiten opstår, eller længere hende i forløbet af en kronisk hepatitis (se komplikationer til hepatitis) som regel i forbindelse med at hepatiten har medført skrumpe lever. Når gulsoten udvikler sig vil patienten typisk også føle sig træt , og klage over at afføringen bliver lysere og urinen mørk. Nogle klager over smerter fra leveren (sidder lige under ribbenene på højre side af maven fortil). I nogle tilfælde er træthed det eneste symptom på hepatiten.

Hepatitis December 2001 WHAT IS HEPATITIS? Hepatitis Hepatitis is a disorder in which viruses or other mechanisms produce inflammation in liver cells, resulting in their injury or destruction. [ See Box The Liver.] In most cases, this inflammatory process is triggered when the immune system fights off infections caused by viruses. It can also be caused, however, by an overactive immune system that attacks its own liver cells. Inflammation of the liver can also occur from medical problems, drugs, alcoholism, chemicals, and environmental toxins. Hepatitis varies in severity from a self-limited condition with total recovery to a life-threatening or life-long disease. Experts define hepatitis in one of two ways: Short-term (acute hepatitis). Prolonged (chronic hepatitis). In some cases, acute hepatitis develops into a chronic condition, but chronic hepatitis can also occur on its own. Although chronic hepatitis is generally the more serious condition, patients having either condition can experience varying degrees of severity. The Liver The liver is the largest organ in the body, occupying the entire upper right quadrant of the abdomen. It performs over 500 vital functions. Among them are the following:

Hepatitis B Vacunas Hepatitis A [ Hepatitis B ] Influenza Varicela Meningitis El padecimiento ... Hechos y cifras EL PADECIMIENTO AGUDA Y DE LARGA DURACION En el ataque agudo, el virus se multiplica en el higado en aproximadamente uno a seis meses (promedio de tres meses). Los estados tempranos de la enfermedad suelen semejar influenza y la fase aguda se desarrolla en etapas que pueden variara de muy leves a graves. En algunos casos es mortal. Los afectados por hepatitis B habitualmente se recuperan. Se requieren sin embargo de varias semanas antes de lograr la recuperacion y de reiniciar las actividades normales. CRONICA DE POR VIDA La hepatitis B cronica tiene un rango de expresion clinica muy amplio. Suele ser asintomatica, de modo que el paciente no siente dolor ni molestias. La mayoria ni siquiera sabe que alberga el virus hasta que la enfermedad progresa a la etapa terminal de cirrosis o cancer hepatico. Los afectados por hepatitis B cronica asintomatica tienen 270 veces mas probabilidad de desarrollar cancer hepatico que los no portadores. ALGUNOS HECHOS Aunque la hepatitis B, como el virus de SIDA, es mas comun entre homosexuales y drogadictos, tambien puede transmitirse entre personas heterosexuales. Esto significa que, durante el coito, varones y mujeres pueden infectarse con el virus, si la pareja es portadora del virus. Siendo infecciosos, pueden transmitir el virus a otras personas. De modo que en viajes, los encuentros sexuales ocasionales, no solo conllevan el riesgo de gonorrea u otras infecciones venereas establecidas; pueden tambien llevar el peligro de hepatitis B o SIDA. Por lo menos, las personas que consienten aventuras sexuales durante sus viajes deben utilizar metodos anticonceptivos de barrera y considerar vacunarse contra la hepatitis B.

Digestive system PITTSBURGH, Pennsylvania (AP) The number of cases of hepatitis A linked to a Mexican restaurant rose to 530 Wednesday, but state health officials said the outbreak has slowed considerably since last week, when dozens of new cases were being reported daily. Secretary of Health Calvin Johnson said officials still haven't determined whether tainted green onions are behind the outbreak at the Chi-Chi's restaurant, but were continuing to investigate. Although at least one person reported contracting the disease after eating at the Beaver Valley Mall restaurant northwest of Pittsburgh as early as September 20, hundreds of cases have been linked to people who ate there in the first week of October, officials said.
