Popis: Despite the development of an effective vaccine, hepatitis B is still the leading cause of chronic viral hepatitis across the world, especially in developing countries, with over 400 million people across the world estimated to be harboring the infection. This section of the journal highlights a few important articles on hepatitis B viral infection published recently and discusses the significance of their results and conclusions. We do hope that this review would enable treating hepatologists, physicians and students to comprehend the significance of these specially selected articles better, which would result in better comprehension and management of different aspects of chronic hepatitis B viral infection encountered in clinical practice.
