Overview

Systematic review reveals prevalent HCV genotypes in India, indicating chronic liver disease risks.

Key Points

  • HCV is responsible for about 25% of liver-related disorders, including hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis.
  • Genotype 3 was the most prevalent, accounting for 45%, while genotype 1 and 3 were equal at 26% in the North-Eastern region.
  • A systematic review and meta-analysis of 20 articles provided insights into HCV prevalence and genotypes in India.
  • Implementing government initiatives like NVHCP could enhance public health understanding and management of HCV.
