Hepatitis means inflammation of the liver due to a viral infection. There are a lot of causes for this, which includes lifestyle choices and some drugs or chemicals. The symptoms for this disease can take up to decades to develop. In Block fourteen we were able to cover viral hepatitis. Take this part one quiz and jog your memory.

Rate this question:
HIV-1 co-infection will be of no consequence on the clinical outcome of patient.
Because the host immune response is strongly involved in the pathogenesis of viral hepatitis, liver damage will be limited in patient due to HIV-1-mediated immunosuppression.
Treatment of HIV-1 infection with reverse transcriptase inhibitors will also inhibit the viral reverse transcriptase responsible for transcribing the hepatitis viral RNA into gapped DNA, thereby also treating the hepatitis.
Patient could have avoided contracting a viral hepatitis altogether, had he received the vaccines currently available.
Patient will likely develop liver fibrosis more rapidly because of HIV-1 co-infection
