肝脏疾病是器官移植后的重要常见并发症,作者试图确定器官移植是否会传播丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)以及 HCV 是否会引起移植后肝病。对象和方法血清标本全部来自1986～1990年新英格兰器官库的尸体器官供者,以酶联免疫吸附分析法(ELISA)回顾性地筛测抗丙型肝炎病毒抗体(抗-HCV)。为了寻找导致肝病的证据,作者查阅了接受抗 HCV 阳性供者器 Liver disease is an important and common complication after organ transplantation and the authors sought to determine whether organ transplantation will transmit hepatitis C virus (HCV) and whether HCV causes post-transplant liver disease. Subjects and Methods Serum specimens were all from cadaver donors in the New England Repository from 1986 to 1990 and anti-HCV antibodies (anti-HCV) were retrospectively screened by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In search of evidence of liver disease, the authors consulted on anti-HCV positive donors
