PLoS ONE, 2013 Children chronically infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV) are at high risk of progressive liver disease. However, no treatment is available that is consistently effective in curing chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in children. Improved understanding of the natural course of disease is warranted.

Correlations of HBV Genotypes, Mutations Affecting HBeAg Expression and HBeAg/ anti-HBe Status in HBV Carriers [PDF]
International Journal of Medical Sciences, 2006 This study was carried out to determine the effects of hepatitis B virus genotypes, core promoter mutations (A1762G1764-->T1762A1764) as well as precore stop codon mutations (TGG-->TAG) on HBeAg expression and HBeAg/ anti-HBe status. Study was also performed on the effects of codon 15 variants (C1858/ T1858) on the predisposition of precore stop codon ...

The Role of Quantitative HBsAg Levels in Chronic Hepatitis B Infection
İstanbul Medical JournalIntroduction: Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection is essential for patient management, including treatment and follow-up. Therefore, quantitative hepatitis B surface antigen (qHBsAg) may help physicians identify the stages of hepatitis B virus (HBV ...

Is the function of the HBeAg really unknown?
Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2019 The immune response to the hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine in newborns of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive or HBeAg-negative mothers is the subject of Huang et al. The authors report no correlation between the HBeAg status of the mothers/cord blood

Viral Biomarkers in Chronic HBeAg Negative HBV Infection [PDF]
Genes, 2018 Viral biomarkers are important tools for monitoring chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) hepatitis B early antigen (HBeAg) negative infection, both in its natural course as well as during and after treatment. The biomarkers consist of antibodies against viral epitopes, viral proteins, and molecular surrogate markers of the quantity and transcriptional ...

BMC Gastroenterology, 2023 Abstract Background Previous studies have indicated that HBV pregenome RNA (HBV pgRNA) could predict HBeAg seroconversion among the chronic hapatitis B (CHB) patients treated with pegylated interferon (Peg-IFN) or nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs).

Different interventional criteria for chronic hepatitis B pregnant women with HBeAg(+) or HBeAg(-)
Medicine, 2018 The seroprevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and its impact on pregnancy outcomes of women from Shaanxi Province (China) was assessed. Risk factors for mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) were evaluated based on HBV-related seroprevalence data.Viral markers and biochemical parameters were assessed in HBsAg-positive mothers and their infants out of 13 ...
