Genetic identities and distances of amino acids and nucleotides in the hypervariable region 1 of HCV in the cryoprecipitate before and after six months of pulse cyclophosphamide treatment of cryoglobulinaemic vasculitis in patients A and B, calculated by BioEdit version 5.0.9. The differences were not statistically significant
