摘要
Introduction: This study reports the genotype prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in Para, Brazil. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 344 plasma samples sent to the Lacen-Para for diagnostics by molecular techniques. Results: HCV genotypes identified in the different regions of Para were 1b (47.7%), 3 (23.3%), la (18%), and 2 (4.4%). Genotype 1 occurred in 41.6% of men and 30.8% of women in the 18-86-year-old group. Conclusions: Genotype 1 is the most predominant in Para, which reinforces the idea of its relationship with late-diagnosed chronic infection.
