病毒性肝炎是影响我国居民健康的严重传染性疾病之一.世界卫生组织提出2030年消除病毒性肝炎的威胁作为全球公共卫生的目标.但是在丙型病毒性肝炎防控方面,由于丙型肝炎病毒(hepatitis C virus,HCV)病原学特点,丙型肝炎病毒感染自然史的特殊性,丙型肝炎在疫苗方面的研究目前没有突破性进展,丙肝肝炎传染源人群特殊,HCV感染后多数无临床症状等因素导致丙型肝炎的防治仍面临着诸多挑战.本文就丙型病毒性肝炎的病毒学、流行病学特征及防治过程中面临的现状等展开综述.
Current situation and prospect of prevention and treatment of hepatitis C
Viral hepatitis is one of the serious infectious diseases affecting the health of Chinese residents.The World Health Organization(WHO)has set the goal of eliminating the threat of viral hepatitis by 2030 as a global public health goal.However,in the prevention and control of viral hepatitis C,due to the etiological characteristics of the hepatitis C virus and the particularity of the natural history of HCV infection,there has been no breakthrough in the research of hepatitis C vaccine.The specificity of the HCV infection population,alongside the fact that the majority of those infected with HCV remain asymptomatic,presents numerous challenges in controlling and preventing hepatitis C.This article provides a comprehensive review of the virology,epidemiology,and current prevention and control challenges faced in the management of hepatitis C.
