| Core Tip |
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection among patients with preexisting chronic liver disease and organ-transplant recipients on immunosuppressive therapy can result in decompensated liver disease and death. The prevalence of HEV infection in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients varies by countries and transplanted organs. This meta-analysis, demonstrates the prevalence of HEV infection in SOT recipients is 20.3% (highest in liver transplant recipients and lowest in lung transplant recipients). The prevalence of HEV infection is two-fold more common in middle-income countries compared to high-income countries. Our findings encourage future studies to describe the clinical impacts of HEV infection on patient and allograft outcomes. |
