pubmed:abstractText |
Occult hepatitis B (HBV) has been reported in numerous clinical settings, but it remains unclear whether occult HBV contributes to liver damage. Given that typical chronic HBV infections often have periodic flairs in viral replication and liver damage, we hypothesized that occult HBV may also have flares in viral replication that are associated with increased liver enzymes.
