Frequency of hepatitis D virus with different hepatitis B virus serological markers and coinfections in hospital patients from Argentina: synchronous testing of anti-HDV antibodies and HDV RNA
This study is evidence that the synchronous testing of anti-HDV antibodies and HDV RNA is necessary for the diagnosis of HDV infection in Argentina. Finally, further research is necessary to identify high-risk populations and improve prevention and control strategies for triple and quadruple infections and their potential consequences.
