F. Gamalei Research Center of the Russian Ministry of Health. She led a group to study the diagnosis, epidemiology and prevention of viral hepatitis A, B and C. The incidence of these infections was high, they were accompanied by severe complications and often had fatal outcomes. This concerned primarily parenteral hepatitis B and C, the methods of diagnosis and prevention of which were developed very insufficiently in those years. Under the leadership of Arpik Ashotovna Asratyan, the first domestic diagnostic drugs for hepatitis B were created, the breadth of distribution of not only clinically pronounced jaundice forms, but also atypical non-jaundice forms hepatitis B was studied, which made it possible to assess the true prevalence of various groups of children and adults in different regions of the former USSR and Russia.</abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>history of medicine</kwd><kwd>Arpik Ashotovna Asratyan</kwd><kwd>epidemiology</kwd><kwd>prevention</kwd><kwd>viral hepatitis</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>история медицины</kwd><kwd>Арпик Ашотовна Асратян</kwd><kwd>эпидемиология</kwd><kwd>профилактика</kwd><kwd>вирусный гепатит</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Асратян А.А., Сипачева Н.Б., Готвянская Т.П. и др.
