Abstract

and the Swiss HIV Cohort StudyWe screened 735 HIV-infected patients in Switzerland with unexplained alanine aminotransferase elevation for hepatitis E virus (HEV) immunoglobulin G.Although HEV seroprevalence in this population is low (2.6%), HEV RNA can persist in patients with low CD4 cell counts.Findings suggest chronic HEV infection should be considered as a cause of persistent alanine aminotransferase elevation.
