EFFICIENCY OF ETIOTROPIC TREATMENT IN CHRONIC VIRAL HEPATITIS
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article aims to evaluate the efficiency of etiotropic treatment in chronic viral hepatitis. The study employs a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies on the topic, focusing on the effectiveness of different etiotropic agents and their impact on patient outcomes. The results suggest that etiotropic treatment can significantly improve the clinical outcomes of patients with chronic viral hepatitis, particularly in terms of reducing viral load and liver inflammation. However, the effectiveness of etiotropic agents may vary depending on the type of virus and the stage of the disease. The study concludes by highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and timely intervention in managing chronic viral hepatitis.
