Special Issue on Viral Hepatitis

Viral hepatitis is an academic topic that focuses on the inflammation of the liver caused by viral infections. It encompasses several types of viruses, including hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. These viruses are transmitted through contaminated food or water, blood transfusions, sexual contact, or from mother to child during childbirth. Understanding viral hepatitis involves studying its epidemiology, prevention strategies, diagnostic techniques, treatment options, and long-term complications such as cirrhosis and liver cancer.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on Viral Hepatitis. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Hepatitis A virus (HAV) epidemiology and prevention
• Hepatitis B virus (HBV) virology, pathogenesis, and immunology
• Hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment and antiviral therapy
• Hepatitis D virus (HDV) co-infection and management
• Hepatitis E virus (HEV) transmission dynamics and zoonotic reservoirs
• Liver fibrosis and cirrhosis in viral hepatitis
• HIV and viral hepatitis co-infection
• Viral hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma
• Development of diagnostic tests and biomarkers
• Hepatitis virus-host interactions and viral replication mechanisms
• Liver transplantation and viral hepatitis
• Epidemiology, transmission and prevention
• Vaccination

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue – Viral Hepatitis” should be chosen during your submission.
