title="Recommendations for treatment of viral hepatitis B in 2026 by the Polish Group of Experts for HBV",
abstract="The Polish Group of Experts (PGE) for hepatitis B virus (HBV), established by the Polish Society of Epidemiologists and Infectious Disease Physicians and the Polish Association for the Study of the Liver, published its first HBV management recommendations in 2007. The current recommendations have been expanded to include the prevention of HBV infection in various populations, the prevention of HBV reactivation, principles for monitoring treatment efficacy and safety, including early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma, and principles for safe treatment discontinuation and interruption. Recommendations for management of acute hepatitis B and co-infections with HDV, HCV, and HIV are also included. Consensus among the ten PGE HBV members was achieved using the Delphi method (5 survey rounds resolving 36 key issues; 2 discussion rounds to clarify doubts).",
