ANTIBODY TO HEPATITIS A AND HEMODIALYSIS

American Journal of Epidemiology, 1982
Antibody to hepatitis A virus (anti-HAV) was surveyed in 469 patients from 20 of 31 Michigan hemodialysis units, during spring 1978. The mean point prevalence of anti-HAV was 59.5% and within the 20 individual units ranged from zero to 100%. For the entire survey population, the point prevalence of anti-HAV was significantly greater with increasing age,

Hepatitis A Antibodies in Finland

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1979
Serum specimens from 191 Finnish adults were tested for antibodies to hepatitis A virus (anti-HAV). The frequency of anti-HAV increased from 8% in the age group of 20-29 years to 92% in those older than 60 years. The level of 50% was reached between 40 and 50 years.

Prevalence of Hepatitis A Antibodies in Italy

International Journal of Epidemiology, 1984
Prevalence of hepatitis A antibodies among 5005 naval recruits aged 18-26 from all parts of Italy was almost double in the south and islands (83.3%) as compared to the north and central regions (45.2%). Social-demographic variables such as education and number of siblings are associated with prevalence of anti-HAV.

Antibody to hepatitis A antigen in children

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1977
The electroretinogram was normal in the second patient, but the visual evoked responses were diminished. As vision returned, the VERs returned to a slightly more normal amplitude and wave pattern. Cortical blindness can occur in bacterial meningitis associated with acute transient hydrocephalus.

Monoclonal antibodies to hepatitis A virus

Journal of Medical Virology, 1984
AbstractThis paper describes the development of monoclonal antibodies generated against hepatitis A virus (HAV). Monoclonal antibodies (MCABs) from two murine hybridoma cell lines were found to bind to an epitope recognized in the sera of patients recovering from infection with HAV.

Sensitive assays for hepatitis a antibodies

Journal of Medical Virology, 1993
AbstractTwo commercial assay kits for detecting antibody to hepatitis A virus (anti‐HAV) have been modified in order to increase their sensitivity. These modifications are made by less dilution of the test serum, in the case of Abbott HAVAB‐M assay, or by an increase in the volumetric ratio of the test serum to the labeled anti‐HAV in the case of the ...

Antibody to Hepatitis C Virus in Post-Transfusion Hepatitis

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1991
To evaluate the prevalence of antibodies to hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV), their relation to outcome, and the seroconversion rate in patients with post-transfusion non-A, non-B hepatitis.Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected serum specimens.A referral-based university hospital.Sixty-three consecutive patients who developed non-A, non-B post ...

Prevalence of hepatitis a antibodies in Swiss travellers

European Journal of Epidemiology, 1993
To assess the prevalence of antibodies to hepatitis A virus (anti-HAV) in future travellers, all visitors to the Zurich University Vaccination Center in July/August 1990 were invited to participate in a cross-sectional study. A total of 1126 future travellers were recruited to have a blood sample drawn and to complete a brief questionnaire. Among these,

Detection of hepatitis B antibody by a single-antibody radioimmunoassay

Journal of Immunological Methods, 1975
A radioimmunoassay (RIA) for the measurement of antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HB-s) in human and non-human sera is described. The principle is based upon our earlier observation that anti-HB-s and hepatitis B surface antigen (HB-s-Ag) are soluble in 4.5% w/v polyethylene glycol 4000 but that anti-HB-s-HB-s-Ag complex is precipitated ...

INFECTIVITY OF HEPATIC ALLOGRAFTS WITH ANTIBODIES TO HEPATITIS B VIRUS

Transplantation, 1997
Since suitable recipients for hepatic allografts from donors with antibodies to hepatitis B virus (HBV) have not been determined, a review of our 7-year experience with donors positive for hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs), hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc), or both was undertaken.Recipients of hepatic allografts from donors with antibodies to
