|
Hepatitis B e Antigens
|
D006513 |
[A closely related group of antigens found in the plasma only during the infective phase of hepatitis B or in virulent chronic hepatitis B, probably indicating active virus replication; there are three subtypes which may exist in a complex with immunoglobulins G.
] |
|
Hepatitis B virus
|
D006515 |
[The type species of the genus ORTHOHEPADNAVIRUS which causes human HEPATITIS B and is also apparently a causal agent in human HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA. The Dane particle is an intact hepatitis virion, named after its discoverer. Non-infectious spherical and tubular particles are also seen in the serum.

|
Hepatitis B, Chronic
|
D019694 |
[INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by HEPATITIS B VIRUS lasting six months or more. It is primarily transmitted by parenteral exposure, such as transfusion of contaminated blood or blood products, but can also be transmitted via sexual or intimate personal contact.
] |
|
Hepatitis C
|
D006526 |
[INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by HEPATITIS C VIRUS, a single-stranded RNA virus. Its incubation period is 30-90 days. Hepatitis C is transmitted primarily by contaminated blood parenterally, and is often associated with transfusion and intravenous drug abuse. However, in a significant number of cases, the source of hepatitis C infection is unknown.

|
Hepatitis C Antibodies
|
D018937 |
[Antibodies to the HEPATITIS C ANTIGENS including antibodies to envelope, core, and non-structural proteins.
] |
|
Hepatitis C Antigens
|
D018936 |
[Antigens of the virions of HEPACIVIRUS, their surface, core, or other associated antigens.
] |
|
Hepatitis C, Chronic
|
D019698 |
[INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans that is caused by HEPATITIS C VIRUS lasting six months or more. Chronic hepatitis C can lead to LIVER CIRRHOSIS.
] |
|
Hepatitis D
|
D003699 |
[INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by HEPATITIS DELTA VIRUS, a defective RNA virus that can only infect HEPATITIS B patients. For its viral coating, hepatitis delta virus requires the HEPATITIS B SURFACE ANTIGENS produced by these patients. Hepatitis D can occur either concomitantly with (coinfection) or subsequent to (superinfection) hepatitis B infection. Similar to hepatitis B, it is primarily transmitted by parenteral exposure, such as transfusion of contaminated blood or blood products, but can also be transmitted via sexual or intimate personal contact.

|
Hepatitis D, Chronic
|
D019701 |
[INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans caused by HEPATITIS DELTA VIRUS in conjunction with HEPATITIS B VIRUS and lasting six months or more.
] |
|
Hepatitis Delta Virus
|
D003698 |
[This is a free-floating genus with one species (HEPATITIS DELTA VIRUS) and no associated family.
, A defective virus, containing particles of RNA nucleoprotein in virion-like form, present in patients with acute hepatitis B and chronic hepatitis. It requires the presence of a hepadnavirus for full replication. This is the lone species in the genus Deltavirus.
] |
|
Hepatitis E
|
D016751 |
[Acute INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in humans; caused by HEPATITIS E VIRUS, a non-enveloped single-stranded RNA virus. Similar to HEPATITIS A, its incubation period is 15-60 days and is enterically transmitted, usually by fecal-oral transmission.
] |
|
Hepatitis E virus
|
D016752 |
[A positive-stranded RNA virus species in the genus HEPEVIRUS, causing enterically-transmitted non-A, non-B hepatitis (HEPATITIS E).
] |
|
Hepatitis Virus, Duck
|
D004371 |
[Unassigned species, in the family PICORNAVIRIDAE, causing high mortality in ducklings 3 days to 3 weeks old.
] |
|
Hepatitis Viruses
|
D006518 |
[Any of the viruses that cause inflammation of the liver. They include both DNA and RNA viruses as well viruses from humans and animals.
] |
|
Hepatitis delta Antigens
|
D035923 |
[Antigens produced by various strains of HEPATITIS D VIRUS.
] |
|
Hepatitis, Alcoholic
|
D006519 |
[INFLAMMATION of the LIVER due to ALCOHOL ABUSE. It is characterized by NECROSIS of HEPATOCYTES, infiltration by NEUTROPHILS, and deposit of MALLORY BODIES. Depending on its severity, the inflammatory lesion may be reversible or progress to LIVER CIRRHOSIS.
] |
|
Hepatitis, Animal
|
D006520 |
[INFLAMMATION of the LIVER in non-human animals.
] |
|
Hepatitis, Autoimmune
|
D019693 |
[A chronic self-perpetuating hepatocellular INFLAMMATION of unknown cause, usually with HYPERGAMMAGLOBULINEMIA and serum AUTOANTIBODIES.
] |
|
Hepatitis, Chronic
|
D006521 |
[An aggressive form of chronic hepatitis involving extensive liver damage and cell injury beyond the portal tract.
, A mild form of chronic hepatitis causing limited damage to the liver.
, INFLAMMATION of the LIVER with ongoing hepatocellular injury for 6 months or more, characterized by NECROSIS of HEPATOCYTES and inflammatory cell (LEUKOCYTES) infiltration. Chronic hepatitis can be caused by viruses, medications, autoimmune diseases, and other unknown factors.
