| Core Tip |
Evaluation of patients with chronic renal disease and glomerular filtration rate lower than 30 mL/min·1.73 m2 showed high occurrence of occult hepatitis C virus infection (OCI). In addition, the study population showed higher occurrence of OCI among patients who were older, had chronic kidney disease (CKD) of multifactorial etiology, and had prior contact with the hepatitis B virus. Further studies will be needed to clarify the pathophysiology of renal injury caused by OCI, the influence of this type of infection on the transmissibility of hepatitis C virus, and the role of treatment for patients with OCI and CKD. |
