HBV vaccination of HCV-infected patients with occult HBV infection and anti-HBc-positive blood donors

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2006
Anti-HBc positivity is a frequent cause of donation rejection at blood banks. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection may also occur in HBsAg-negative patients, a situation denoted occult infection. Similarly, very low levels of HBV-DNA have also been found in

Possible Association between Genetic Diversity of Hepatitis B Virus and Its Effect on the Detection Rate of Hepatitis B Virus DNA in the Placenta and Fetus

Viruses, 2023
Background: The prevalence of HBV infection and HBV genotypes varies from country to country, and the role of HBV genotypes in the presence of HBV in the placenta and fetus has never been explored.

Viral adaptation to host immune responses occurs in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, and adaptation is greatest in HBV e antigen-negative disease [PDF]

, 2012
Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-specific T-cell responses are important in the natural history of HBV infection. The number of known HBV-specific T-cell epitopes is limited, and it is not clear whether viral evolution occurs in chronic HBV infection. We aimed to

Nucleic Acid Testing for the Detection of HBV DNA [PDF]

Hepatitis Monthly, 2011
Dear Editor, We read with interest the article by Arababadi et al. [1], which highlights different and important areas of concern in the management of occult hepatitis B (OBI). There are two relevant issues worthy of discussion. First, the authors described the variable prevalence of OBI in different geographical regions worldwide.

Maternal HBeAg positivity and viremia associated with umbilical cord blood hepatitis B viremia

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2019
Background: Hepatitis B (HBV) transmission may result from in utero transmission. We aimed to determine the correlation between maternal serum and umbilical cord blood HBV DNA levels in infants delivered by chronic HBV-infected mothers and to describe ...
