Role of antiviral therapy in the natural history of hepatitis B virus-related chronic liver disease [PDF]

, 2015
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a dynamic state of interactions among HBV, hepatocytes, and the host immune system. Natural history studies of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection have shown an association between active viral replication and adverse

Prevalence of HBsAg and knowledge about hepatitis B in pregnancy in the Buea Health District, Cameroon: a cross-sectional study

BMC Research Notes, 2014
BackgroundAlthough infection with Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) remains a global public health problem, little is known about its epidemiology in pregnancy in sub-Saharan Africa. This study sought to determine the prevalence of, and identify factors associated

Residual risk of human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis C, and hepatitis B following implementation of sexual risk behavior‐based screening in Canada

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In 2022, Canadian Blood Services implemented a gender‐neutral sexual behavior‐based screening (SBBS) approach to donor deferral, replacing time‐based criteria targeting gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (gbMSM) and female partners of gbMSM. We assessed the impact of this policy change on human immunodeficiency virus (

Comparing specificity and seroconversion sensitivity among major blood screening assays for human immunodeficiency virus and viral hepatitis

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Accurate detection of transfusion‐transmissible infections, such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C and B viruses (HCV/HBV), is critical to ensure blood safety, and screening assays must demonstrate high specificity and sensitivity.

HBsAg Quantification in Clinical Practice [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hepatology, 2012
Several standardized commercial assays for quantification of hepatitis B surface antigen (qHBsAg) are now available. Studies on HBsAg kinetics from Asia and Europe have demonstrated that HBsAg levels are highest during the immune-tolerant phase, become lower during immune-clearance phase and are the lowest in hepatitis B 'e' antigen (HBeAg)-negative ...

Re‐entry of donors deferred for false‐reactive screening tests in Canada: 10 years post implementation

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Canadian Blood Services implemented a re‐entry programme in 2014. Donors deferred because of false‐reactive or indeterminate screening tests can provide a specimen for re‐entry testing 6 months after their initial test, and resume donating if they test negative for all infectious markers.
