Some European countries recently reported an increase in hepatitis E virus genotype 3 (HEV-3) of the subtype 3c. No link between HEV-3 subtypes and severity is established to date. Here, we report that patients infected with HEV-3c were at lower risk of hospitalisation, compared to those infected with HEV-3f, the other main subtype circulating in Belgium.
最近,一些欧洲国家报告称,戊型肝炎病毒基因型 3(HEV-3)的 3c 亚型有所增加。迄今为止,尚未确定 HEV-3 亚型与严重程度之间存在联系。在此,我们报告称,与在比利时流行的另一种主要亚型 HEV-3f 相比,感染 HEV-3c 的患者住院的风险较低。
