The importance of the serum quantitative levels of hepatitis B surface antigen and hepatitis B e antigen in children with chronic hepatitis B

The Turkish Journal of Gastroenterology, 2015
Background/Aims: We aimed to investigate the clinical importance of quantitative levels of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), and to detect their correlation with hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA load, alanine ...

An Exploratory Cost‐Utility Analysis of Screening and Treating Immigrants in Canada for Hepatitis D

Journal of Viral Hepatitis, Volume 33, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Hepatitis D is common among immigrants in Canada, who account for approximately 23% of the population and tend to originate from high‐endemic countries. Mortality rates are notably high among those with chronic infections, and immigrants are less likely to engage in screening and treatment services.

Establishment of an Inducible HBV Stable Cell Line that Expresses cccDNA-dependent Epitope-tagged HBeAg for Screening of cccDNA Modulators

Antiviral Research, 2016
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) covalently closed circular (ccc) DNA is essential to the virus life cycle, its elimination during chronic infection is considered critical to a durable therapy but has not been achieved by current antivirals.

Cost-Effectiveness and Clinical Impact of Antiviral Strategies of HBeAg-Positive and -Negative Chronic Hepatitis B

Annals of Hepatology, 2017
Introduction: Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is associated with high burden and healthcare costs. Virologic response achieved with an-tivirals is associated with progression avoidance.

Impact of HBeAg on the maturation and function of dendritic cells.

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2016
OBJECTIVES HBV infection typically leads to chronic hepatitis in newborns and some adults with weakened immune systems. The mechanisms by which virus escapes immunity remain undefined.

Baseline quantitative hepatitis B core antibody titre alone strongly predicts HBeAg seroconversion across chronic hepatitis B patients treated with peginterferon or nucleos(t)ide analogues

Gut, 2015
Objective The investigation regarding the clinical significance of quantitative hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) during chronic hepatitis B (CHB) treatment is limited.

Association of core promoter mutations of hepatitis B virus and viral load is different in HBeAg(+) and HBeAg(-) patients

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2011
To identify the prevalence of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and to assess the association of hepatitis B virus (HBV) core promoter mutations and viral load in Indonesian patients.Sixty-four patients with chronic hepatitis, 65 with liver cirrhosis and 50 with hepatocellular carcinoma were included in this study.
