Journal Title: Гепатологія - Year 2018, Vol 39, Issue 1
Abstract
Th e analysis of the screening of patients and individuals at risk from Dnipropetrovsk region for the serological markers of viral hepatitis C, namely anti-HCV IgM and anti-HCV IgG, has been performed. Totally, 159.611 anti-HCV IgG studies have been performed for 151.775 individuals and 73.144 anti-HCV IgM studies for 68.206 individuals. In general, 2.633 positive results for anti-HCV IgM have been detected in the population (3.98% of the examined), which is the prevalence of 81.28 per 100.000 population. Besides, in general, positive results for anti-HCV IgG have been detected in 6.236 individuals (3.85% of the examined), the prevalence constituted 187.04 per 100.000 population. Th e total number of hepatitis C markers was found in 8.659 individuals, which is 3.94% of the examined contingent and 0.27% of the population in Dnipropetrovsk region (prevalence of 268.32 per 100.000 population), which is lower than the estimated prevalence of hepatitis C in Ukraine. Compiling a register of patients with chronic viral hepatitis would help to summarize the data at the local and national levels, to determine the prevalence of the disease and would improve medical care for patients with viral hepatitis.
