Fighting against Viral Hepatitis: Lessons from Taiwan
No full textViral hepatitis and its sequelae are important health problems worldwide, including Taiwan. For the last 40 years, Taiwan's scientists and health care providers have worked hard to control these sequelae, and the results have been excellent. The author, Ding-Shinn Chen, had a key role in planning and establishing the control program in Taiwan, and participated in the endeavors from the very beginning. In this perspective, he describes how he became interested in research as a medical student, his encounters with hepatitis B and C, how he and his colleagues started early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), how he helped Taiwan's government create and implement the Viral Hepatitis Control Program, and how the effectiveness of the program in the decrease of hepatitis B carriage and HCC was monitored. He also discusses how he pioneered the use of interferon- plus ribavirin to treat chronic hepatitis C. Hepatitis B viral load as a risk factor for HCC and cirrhosis in hepatitis B surface antigen carriers is reviewed briefly, as is the prevention of sequelae by antiviral therapies. Finally, Dr. Chen discusses unresolved issues that must be addressed and predicts the changes of the patterns of liver disease in Taiwan beyond the mid-21st century, which is in part affected by the fight against viral hepatitis that was initiated in the early 1980s . CONCLUSION: Dr. Chen's perspective illustrates Taiwan's fight against viral hepatitis over the last 40 years. This experience can be shared by other countries in which the disease is equally prevalent

Type species. Bambusiphaga nigropunctata Huang & Ding, 1979, by original designation. Diagnosis. Head including eyes narrower than pronotum. Vertex quadrate or rectangular, with submedian carinae uniting at apex of vertex. Frons rectangular, longer at middle line than wide (1.64–2.7: 1), median carina distinct and simple. Antennae cylindrical, basal segment slightly longer or equal to width, 2 nd segment longer than 1 st (more than 2.7: 1), reaching or almost reaching frontoclypeal suture. Pronotum about as long as vertex, lateral carinae straight, reaching or almost reaching hind margin. Mesonotum longer at middle line than vertex and pronotum together (about 1.3 –2.0: 1). Spinal formula of hind leg 5-6 - 4. Post-tibial spur without teeth along posterior margin, but with an apical tooth. Forewings with cross vein deposited medially. Anal style small. Anal segment of male ring-like, ventral margin with or without a process. Pygofer with or without medioventral processes. Aedeagus with or without phallobase; phallus complex, tubular. Genital styles simple, with a process, or forked apically. Seventh abdominal sternite of female present or absent. Host plants. Bamboo (Bambusoideae). Specimens of Bambusiphaga species were collected on leaves of bamboo in several genera, viz. Bambusa, Dendrocalamus, Sinocalamus, Neosinocalamus, and Phyllostachys (Huang et al. 1979; Ding & Hu 1982; Ding et al. 1986; Yang & Yang 1986; Chen & Li 2000; Chen et al. 2000; Chen & Liang 2007). Distribution. Oriental region, with highest species density in China.Published as part of Yang, Lin & Chen, Xiang-Sheng, 2011, The Oriental bamboo-feeding genus Bambusiphaga Huang & Ding, 1979 (Hemiptera: Delphacidae: Tropidocephalini): a checklist, a key to the species and descriptions of two new species, pp. 50-59 in Zootaxa 2879 on pages 50-59, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.20602

No full textGenus Neobelocera Ding & Yang, 1986 Type species: Neobelocera asymmetrica Ding & Yang, 1986 (original designation). Diagnosis The genus Neobelocera is easily distinguished from other genera of Tropidocephalini by the following combination of characters: antennae with first segment subsagittate, markedly flattened, a longitudinal carina down middle, the ventral apical angle longer than dorsal apical angle (Figs 1E, 2B, 3E, 4B); when postclypeus viewed in profile, apical part of median carina bent at rounded angle, not at right angle (Figs 1D, 3D) (Hou & Chen 2010; Hu & Ding 2014).
