| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Hepatitis C virus infection is a leading cause for chronic liver disease. It has wide population specific genotype variability. Genotype knowledge and viral load assessment are equally important for designing therapeutic strategies and as predictors of treatment outcome among hepatitis C (HCV) infected patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between June 2012 and 2013 an observational study was conducted among 350 chronic hepatitis patients visiting Calcutta National Medical College, Kolkata, India. Among them, 110 anti-HCV antibody positive cases were diagnosed and subjected to viral RNA extraction, viral genotyping and viral load quantification using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based techniques. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Statistical analysis was done with IBM SPSS Statistics software, version 20. p-value <0.05 was regarded as statically significant. RESULTS: Among 66 HCV RNA positive cases, genotypes 1a, 3a and 3b were observed among 18 (27%), 44(67%) and 4(6%) cases respectively. Genotype 3a had higher viral load than patients infected with genotypes 1and 3b. However, no statistical significance was observed for viral load among the various HCV RNA genotypes. CONCLUSION: Genotype 3a accounted for the highest number of cases with positive HCV RNA. However, no statistically significant difference existed for viral load among the various HCV RNA genotypes in this study. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
