I'm not usually one for over sharing but I've just finished my first week of chemotherapy and I won't lie I'm scared of how it's affecting me, but your enthusiasm for the topic helped put my mind at ease. So thank you, you have no idea how much I needed this today

[balalala]

Thank you for making this free to access ❤

Also: Nowadays we rarely use interferon to treat chronic hep B... Thankfully, we use better tolerated drugs like tenofovir and entecavir

No Anti-HBC, so no previous infection, right?

[anomalyp]

You didn't display the HBc Ag evolution on the graph. And i think it's because it's not measured in the blood, but only on liver samples.

these videos are so good, I just hope you can keep them free! I notice things disappear from the youtube channel, presumably to go behind the paywall. It would be a huge shame if Osmosis becomes a tool for wealthy students.

No words to Express my gratitude towards your efforts for making such a wonderful video❤

[Nysarak]

Actually.... Not quite true: hep E CAN give chronic infection, depending on the genotype

[tdj]

One of your best videos of all time for me'

Please someone answer this question about the second case 0:59
Q/ what is the diagnosis of this case (what type of heptitis) and how did you know?

[makaylalee]

Very informative. I like learning about this stuff.

[meltemcokmesgul]

Correct me if i'm wrong but HAV actually has a carier state and it's pretty important. Fecal HAV peaks weeks before jaundice and other symptoms appear. That's why it can be spread way before patient's knowledge of infection.

[himanshuhardas]

during acute hepatitis, shouldn't HBeAg also be positive?

[Shamaate]

Thank you for providing such informative videos

[anthy.o]

Thanks so much for the informative video. According to the WHO, HDV-HBV co-infection is considered the most severe form of chronic viral hepatitis due to more rapid progression towards hepatocellular carcinoma and liver-related death, but in your video, you said that the HDV-HBV superinfection is the most severe form of chronic viral hepatitis. Is this a mistake? Which is correct?

[aishwaryakhobragade]

You are so kind and giving. Thank you ❤

[dereknicolas]

you got the side effects of the drugs mixed up at the end

[AID_Medicine]
