Doubtful Role of IL28B Polymorphism in Occult Hepatitis B Infection
Conclusions: In OBI donors, IL28B CC correlates with the intensity of HBV-specific T-cell responses. In this study, IL28B CC is not statistically associated with OBI or with HBV clearance, but a larger number of cases is needed before completely ruling out its role in HBV infection.Intervirology 2015;58:160-165 (Source: Intervirology)

X4 Tropic Virus Prediction Is Associated with a Nadir CD4 T-Cell Count below 100 Cells/mm3
Conclusion: We determined that the X4 virus detection is closely linked to the nadir CD4 T-cell count below 100 cells/mm3 that must be taken into account when considering a CCR5 antagonist therapy switch.Intervirology 2015;58:155-159 (Source: Intervirology)
