Sudan health crisis at ‘gravely serious' level warns WHOForced returns to Burkina Faso must end says UNHCRNew liver care campaign launched on World Hepatitis Day

In honour of World Hepatitis Day, today we focus on the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), a virus that can be transmitted through contact with infected blood and from mother to child during labour. HBV can also be transmitted sexually. It infects liver cells and causes both acute and chronic infections, which can be severe. Since HBV was discovered in 1965, we have made great progress in reducing the burden of infections and disease through prevention and antiviral treatment, but much is left to do. The World Health Organization has called for enhanced efforts along four main pathways: i) increasing awareness of HBV infection, ii) promoting prevention strategies, iii) expanding access to testing and treatment; and iv) improving surveillance, data collection and research. Today we will discuss these topics with a focus on the European Region with our three guests: - Dr. Erika Duffell, Public Health Physician, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), Stockholm, Sweden - Prof. Anna Maria Geretti, Editor in Chief, STI journal; Professor & Consultant in Infectious Diseases & Virology, Fondazione PTV, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Rome, Italy; North Middlesex University Hospital and King's College London, London, United Kingdom - Prof.  Simon de Lusignan, Senior Academic General Practitioner (GP) and Director of the Royal College of GPs Research & Surveillance Centre, Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom Hosted by: Dr. Fabiola Martin, Sexual Health, HIV, HTLV specialist, BMJ STI Podcast Editor, Brisbane, Australia    Relevant papers: Hepatitis B virus infection in general practice across England: An analysis of the Royal College of General Practitioners Research and Surveillance Centre real-world database https://www.journalofinfection.com/article/S0163-4453(23)00130-5/ Impact of maternal HIV–HBV coinfection on pregnancy outcomes in an underdeveloped rural area of southwest China https://sti.bmj.com/content/96/7/509 Prevalence of hepatitis B immunity and infection in home self-sampling HIV service users https://sti.bmj.com/content/98/4/286 Hepatitis A and B vaccination in gbMSM in Ireland: findings from the European MSM Internet Survey 2017 (EMIS-2017) https://sti.bmj.com/content/99/5/337 Hepatitis A and B vaccine uptake and immunisation among men who have sex with men seeking PrEP: a substudy of the ANRS IPERGAY trial https://sti.bmj.com/content/99/2/140 Hepatitis A, hepatitis B and HPV vaccine needs and coverage in MSM initiating HIV PrEP in a sexual health clinic in Paris https://sti.bmj.com/content/99/5/361    

It's World Hepatitis Day this week, on July 28, and perhaps an apt time to look at conditions associated with the liver. One of the first things that comes to mind is alcohol and the liver. Across the world, people have believed for decades now that a moderate amount of alcohol consumption may be good for you – that it could potentially protect you against heart disease. A study published earlier this year, however, by Canadian researchers, disputes this. The analysis, of more than 100 studies covering about 4.8 million people pointed out that all the older studies, which linked moderate alcohol use with better health, had failed to take into consideration, the fact that moderate drinkers had other healthy habits – they were more likely to exercise and had better diets. Once this was corrected for, the researchers said the health benefits of drinking, dramatically decrease. The finding ties in with the World Health Organisation's warning early this year that when it comes to alcohol consumption, there is no safe amount that does not affect health. What does the latest research into alcohol conclusively point to? How does India fare when it comes to alcohol and liver disease? Can any amount of drinking be considered safe?

On this episode of Inside Health Care, we talk Medicaid with a large, equity-focused provider about the end of the Fed's pandemic-related emergency Medicaid provisions. Following that, a chat with one of our 2022-2023 PCMH Certified Content Expert Quality Award winners. Later on, some fast facts for you in observance of World Hepatitis Day.Elevance Health, a large multi-state health insurance provider, is the largest managed care company in the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association. In September of 2022, an Elevance Health subsidiary, Simply Healthcare Plans of Florida, became one of the first health care organizations in the U.S. to earn accreditation in NCQA's Health Equity Accreditation Plus program.We interview Elevance Health Medicaid President Aimée Dailey alongside Staff Vice President for Medicaid Whole Health Kalunde Wambua to find out more about the company's continued commitment to Equity improvement.We also talk with one of NCQA's 2022-2023 PCMH Certified Content Expert Quality Award winner, Susanne Campbell, Senior Program Administrator for the Care Transformation Collaborative of Rhode Island. We talked about the challenges of getting people on board with quality measurement. And we learned that, as measurement improves, customer focus improves, and health delivery becomes more efficient, all leading to solutions for resolving historic gaps in health equity.Finally, in our Fast Facts segment, we observe the World Health Organization's World Hepatitis Day, scheduled annually every July 28th. We include resources from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services alongside an article from the NIH. Hepatitis awareness includes further reminders for childhood immunization, something NCQA measures in our HEDIS Measures package called Childhood Immunization Status, or C-I-S. The measure calculates the rates for a number of childhood vaccines and vaccine combinations. Among the vaccines in the list, alongside DTaP, MMR, and the flu, are vaccines for both Hep A and Hep B.We're also proud to announce that Inside Health Care won two media industry awards, both announced in June 2023. We won a Merit award from the Digital Health Awards. We've also been named a Gold Winner 2023 by the Hermes Awards. Thanks to all our interviewees and leadership staff at NCQA for their support along the way.

The 28th of July is recognized as World Hepatitis Day. With the ongoing pandemic that began in 2020, our whole focus has been on Covid-19, and we have somehow overlooked the threat and mishaps that Hepatitis can cause. “Hepatitis can't wait!” is the theme for World Hepatitis Day 2021. To make us all well aware about this condition, we have Dr Lovkesh Anand - Consultant – Gastroenterology of Manipal Hospitals. Question: What is Hepatitis and what are its forms? Answer: The term Hepatitis comes from two words, “Hepa” meaning liver and “it is” meaning inflammation. Thus, any inflammation or swelling of the liver is called as Hepatitis. The various causes and forms are: Alcoholic, Non-alcoholic, Drug induced liver injury, and Viral Hepatitis Question: Which kind or type of Hepatitis is more prevalent in kids? Answer: Hepatitis is broadly classified as Acute Hepatitis & Chronic Hepatitis. In Acute Hepatitis, the condition flares up suddenly and goes away. But in some rare cases it can also lead to either chronic hepatitis or can cause acute liver failure. In Chronic Hepatitis, the condition is of long-term and might lead to permanent scaring , liver failure or even liver cancer. Question: If a child is suffering from Hepatitis what are the symptoms? Answer: There are 5 major types of Viral Hepatitis: Hepatitis, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Hepatitis D, and Hepatitis E. Out of these A & E are more commonly seen in children. B & C are chronic forms which can also be seen in both adults and kids but in severe cases. HAV infection in children is typically an acute, self-limited illness, but this does not develop jaundice at all. It is present as fever, vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain, discomfort, and diarrhea. Learn about the Chronic Hepatitis and the importance of Hepatitis vaccination in children. Also find out if there is any link present between Covid-19 and Hepatitis.Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/chimesradioSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Following acute exposure to the hepatitis C virus, most people develop chronic infection that increases the risk for long-term hepatic complications. Current treatment with oral direct-acting agents aims to eradicate the virus. Jawad Ahmad, Professor of Medicine in the Division of Liver Diseases at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, discusses hepatitis C infection with BMJ Knowledge Centre's U.S. Clinical Lead Sheila Feit, including future directions for a rapidly evolving field.

Welcome to the third episode of the new Sydney Sexual Health Centre podcast! This episode ties into Hepatitis Awareness Week, which is held at the end of July and incorporates World Hepatitis Day on July 28th. Two campaigns will run throughout July in the lead up to Hepatitis Awareness Week and World Hepatitis Day. We talk to Stuart Loveday from Hepatitis NSW about hepatitis B and hepatitis C, as well as the state-wide hepatitis B and hepatitis C awareness campaigns. More on the hepatitis B campaign: www.hepB.org.au More on the hepatitis C campaign: www.hepC.org.au More on Hepatitis NSW: www.hep.org.au More on Sydney Sexual Health Centre: www.sshc.org.au

This episode focuses on the ground-breaking new treatments for hepatitis C which currently affects over 230,000 Australians. Professor Greg Dore is Head of the Viral Hepatitis Clinical Research Program at the Kirby Institute, UNSW. Greg joins Annie & Carla for a special World Hepatitis Day episode of the SpeakEasy.

While we tried our best to fix them, we couldn't get them out so they're immortalised in episode two. We've already taken steps to reduce the risk of this happening again. Thanks for bearing with us during our early days!

Thousands of people stand to be cured of viral hepatitis if they speak to their doctors, according to this years World Hepatitis Day campaign.

The Empty Closet - World Hepatitis Day

Am 28. Juli 2014 rief die Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) erneut zum World Hepatitis Day auf. Zusammen mit der World Hepatitis Alliance kämpft die WHO für das aktive Einschreiten der Regierungen gegen Infektionserkrankungen auf der ganzen Welt, für bessere Präventionsprogramme und den Zugang zu Impfstoffen und Medikamenten auch für die Menschen in Entwicklungsländern. Ein Hauptvertreter der Krankheit ist das Hepatitis-B-Virus (HBV). Warum hat HBV eine solche Relevanz für die gesamte Weltbevölkerung? Die globale Ausbreitung dieses Erregers ist immens und betrifft zur Zeit etwa zwei Milliarden Menschen. Diese sind an einer akuten oder chronischen Form erkrankt oder haben eine HBV-Erkrankung überstanden. Über 600.000 Menschen sterben jährlich daran. Schätzungsweise 350 Millionen Menschen weltweit leben mit einer chronischen HBV-Infektion und tragen ein sehr hohes Risiko, an Leberzirrhose oder dem hepatozellulärem Karzinom (HCC) zu erkranken (Ott et al., 2012; Teh and Sasadeusz, 2014). Durch die ubiquitäre Verteilung des Virus weisen Regionen wie Südostasien und Subsahara-Afrika eine hohe Prävalenz auf. Weniger als 1 % der Bevölkerung in Westeuropa, Nordamerika und Australien sind Träger einer chronischen Hepatitis-B-Virusinfektion (Janahi, 2014). Trotz der präventiven Impfung und Behandlung von Patienten mit antiviralen Langzeittherapien ist die Entwicklung von Methoden der Resistenzvermeidung und das Aufstellen neuer Konzepte zum Schutz von non-respondern in der Zukunft unumgänglich (Zuckerman, 1996). Nicht nur die Suche nach einem therapeutischen Impfstoff und effizienteren Medikamenten treibt die Forschung voran, auch sind viele Fragen des Lebenszyklus des Hepatitis-B-Virus nur teilweise entschlüsselt. Die Wissenschaft kann noch keine Antwort über den genauen Viruseintritt in die Leberzellen sowie die komplexe Bedeutung der subviralen Partikel geben. Auf diesem Gebiet ist Grundlagenforschung unerlässlich. Für eine gute Replikation benötigt das Hepatitis-B-Virus eine sessile Zelle. Es sind fokale Adhäsionen vorhanden, welche eine entscheidene Rolle bei der Zelladhäsion und Zellwanderung spielen (Gallant et al., 2002). Das Protein Paxillin (PXN) ist ein wichtiger Baustein bei der Koordination der Signaltransduktion zwischen extrazellulärer Matrix (EZM), den fokalen Adhäsionen und dem Aktin-Zytoskelett. Paxillin agiert als Vermittler zwischen vielfältigsten biologischen Makromolekülen (Schaller, 2001; Brown and Turner, 2004). Diese Erkenntnisse sind Ausgangspunkt für die weitere Forschung nach der Verbindung des signaltransduzierenden Adapterproteins Paxillin und dem Lebenszyklus des Hepatitis-B-Virus.
