The Dynamics of a Delay Model of Hbv Infection with Logistic Hepatocyte Growth
Chronic HBV affects 350 million people and can lead to death through cirrhosisinduced liver failure or hepatocellular carcinoma. We analyze the dynamics of a model considering logistic hepatocyte growth and a standard incidence function governing viral infection. This model also considers an explicit time delay in virus production. With this model formulation all model parameters can be estimat...

متن کاملRich dynamics of a hepatitis B viral infection model with logistic hepatocyte growth.
Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major cause of human suffering, and a number of mathematical models have examined within-host dynamics of the disease. Most previous HBV infection models have assumed that: (a) hepatocytes regenerate at a constant rate from a source outside the liver; and/or (b) the infection takes place via a mass action process. Assumption (a) contradicts experim...
متن کاملOptimal antiviral treatment strategies and the effects of resistance
Recent pandemic planning has highlighted the importance of understanding the effect that widespread antiviral use will have on the emergence and spread of resistance. A number of recent studies have determined that if resistance to antiviral medication can evolve, then deploying treatment at a less than maximum rate often minimizes the outbreak size. This finding, however, involves the assumpti...
متن کاملAntiviral therapy of chronic HBV infection in pregnancy
We describe a 27-year-old hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected pregnant woman, with a history of miscarriage a year ago. The patient has been HBsAg and HBeAg positive for 20 years but has never been treated for HBV infection, because of stable elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity and high viral load. Treatment with tenofovir disoproxil was introduced in the 10th week of pregnancy and HB...
