Diabetes mellitus in chronic hepatitis B and C: prevalence and potential association with the extent of liver fibrosis.

abstract：:To achieve WHO hepatitis C virus (HCV) elimination targets by 2030, mathematical models suggest there needs to be significant scale-up of treatment among people who inject drugs (PWID). We tested whether people who actively inject drugs can be recruited and treated successfully through a community needle and syringe p...
