The role of mutations in core protein of hepatitis B virus in liver fibrosisAshraf Mohamadkhani
National Institute of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology Tehran, Iran
Virol J 6:209. 2009..Our data suggests that core protein mutations in CTL epitopes and C-terminal domain accompanied with higher stage of liver fibrosis may be due to alterations in the function of core protein...

Arch Iran Med 13:193-202. 2010..We aimed to investigate the histological activity and HBV DNA levels in these patients...
Surface area: a better predictor of disease severity than the height and volume of the barium column in patients with primary achalasiaGhodrat Montazeri
Digestive Disease Research Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Shariati Hospital, Tehran, Iran
Eur J Gastroenterol Hepatol 18:1203-8. 2006..Subjective assessment of primary achalasia is not accurate. We aimed to study the utility of surface area of barium retention in the objective assessment of these patients...
Current treatment of chronic hepatitis BGhodrat Montazeri
Digestive Disease Research Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran
Arch Iran Med 9:1-10. 2006..Treatment strategy is changing towards using prolonged combination therapy with evolving nucleoside analogues with or without an immunomodulatory agent, aiming at eradicating covalently closed circular DNA...
Serum hyaluronate as a non-invasive marker of hepatic fibrosis and inflammation in HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis BGhodrat Montazeri
Digestive Disease Research Centre, Tehran University of Medical Science, Tehran, Iran
BMC Gastroenterol 5:32. 2005..It is crucial to monitor this disease more closely with a non-invasive marker in clinical trials. We aimed to evaluate the predictive value of serum hyaluronate for the presence of extensive liver fibrosis and inflammation...
Lower oesophageal sphincter pressure and timed barium oesophagogram: two objective parameters in the non-invasive assessment of primary achalasiaG Montazeri
