Long-term outcome after spontaneous HBeAg seroconversion in patients with chronic hepatitis B [PDF]
During the course of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion to its antibody (anti-HBe) often coincides with normalization of liver biochemical test and clinical remission, but data regarding long-term outcome after spontaneous seroconversion are still scarce.

Hepatitis B virus RNA and hepatitis B surface antigen kinetics predict treatment outcomes in children with chronic hepatitis B [PDF]
BackgroundSerum hepatitis B virus (HBV) pregenomic RNA (pgRNA) predicts antiviral response in adults with chronic hepatitis B (CHB); however, its prognostic performance against conventional biomarkers in children remains underexplored.

Prevalence and clinical significance of HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients with and without anti-HBe antibody [PDF]
The clinical significance of the coexistence of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and antibodies against HBeAg (anti-HBe) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) remains unclear.

HBeAg seroconversion as an important end point in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B [PDF]
During the natural history of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the loss of serum hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and the development of anti-HBe antibodies (HBeAg seroconversion) mark a transition from the immune-active phase of disease to the inactive carrier state.

HBV RNA at 6 months after nucleos(t)ide analogues treatment can predict antiviral efficacy in chronic hepatitis B patients [PDF]
Background This multicenter study evaluated serum HBV RNA as a prognostic biomarker for nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) therapy in chronic hepatitis B (CHB), focusing on correlations with HBV DNA/HBsAg and predictive value for virological response (VR) and ...
