Our poster at #EASLcongress2023 shows liver disease progression and increased liver related events among untreated patients with baseline HBV DNA >2,000IU/mL. Similar results found in new systematic review by our colleague Yusuke Shimakawa
Replying to @gndow
@gndow highlights «among HBV-infected patients ineligible for treatment , 7.2% had liver disease progression during follow-up ». Monitoring should be maintained in Africa. #EASLcongress2023 @maud_lemoine @ProlificaA @EASLnews @mrcunitgambia

Looking forward to today's presentation. Mother-to-child transmission of Hepatitis B (HBV) is a topic that is usually ignored despite Africa having the highest rate of HBV prevalence in children under 5 years (2.53%) globally. #MTCTofHBV #COLDA2021 @ProlificaA

Don’t keep blaming others each time something goes wrong. Don’t keep looking for scapegoats. Be mature enough to stop complaining and take full responsibility for everything. Assess the situation and realize your mistake. Learn from it and try no to repeat it. That’s maturity!
