Hepatitis C and HIV combined screening in primary care: A cluster randomized trial.

abstract：:Only in a minority of patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) will treatment with interferon (IFN)-alpha or nucleoside analogues lead to sustained virological response. In vivo immunization (IVI) following virus suppression aims to optimize conditions for an effective immune response: following rapid and profound viru...
