Acute and Chronic Hepatitis E Virus Infection in Human Immunodeficiency Virus‐Infected U.S. Women
Mark H. Kuniholm, Edgar Ong, Boris M. Hogema, Marco Koppelman, Kathryn Anastos, Marion G. Peters, Eric C. Seaberg, Yue Chen, Kenrad E. Nelson, Jeffrey M. Linnen – 8 December 2015 – Exposure to hepatitis E virus (HEV) is common in the United States, but there are few data on prevalence of HEV/human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfection in U.S. populations. We tested 2,919 plasma samples collected from HIV‐infected (HIV+) women and men enrolled in U.S. cohort studies for HEV viremia using a high‐throughput nucleic acid testing (NAT) platform.
