Hepatitis B virus DNA and hepatitis B surface antigen levels in chronic hepatitis B
Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2010Despite universal vaccination, chronic hepatitis B (CHB) continues to be a major health burden worldwide, with an estimated 350-400 million people infected with the virus. Over the past decade, rapid progress has been made with regards to antiviral therapy for CHB, from conventional interferon to pegylated interferon, and with the earliest oral agent ...

Hepatitis B and C are worldwide infectious hepatitides which are distinct in terms of epidemiology and molecular biology, but which may be quite similar in terms of clinical manifestations and histopathology, in both the acute and chronic stages. Hepatitis B virus (HBV), the human prototype of the Hepadnaviridae family of viruses is not directly ...

Hepatitis B Antigen and Prevention of Post-Transfusion Hepatitis B
Vox Sanguinis, 1975Abstract. Screening for hepatitis B antigen (HBsAg) in the serum of blood donors and exclusion of antigen‐positive blood units have reduced the frequency of post‐transfusion hepatitis but several cases of hepatitis B still occur in association with transfusions. One explanation for this is probably that HBsAg is not an indicator of infectivity.

In the United States each year, 24,000 infants are born to women who are infected with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and an estimated 1000 newborns acquire the infection through vertical transmission from their mother. The approach to a pregnant patient with HBV infection includes assessing the need for therapy in the mother and evaluating possible ...

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections represent a major global public health and economic burden, with an estimated 257 million and 71 million people, respectively, having chronic infection worldwide. The natural history of HBV and HCV in children depends on age at time of infection, mode of acquisition, ethnicity, and genotype.

DNA recombinant technology has radically changed hepatitis B virus (HBV) virology. The genetic organization, transcription and replication of the virus are basically understood, structures of integrated HBV sequences in hepatocellular carcinoma have been characterized, and new vaccines produced by recombinant DNA technique are being developed.

In brief: An athlete had an active case of hepatitis B that probably resulted from inadequate sterilization of acupuncture needles five months before the onset of the disease. Therefore, it is important to be sure that acupuncture needles are properly sterilized.

Hepatitis B in transplantation
Transplant Infectious Disease, 2000Abstract:Hepatitis B has been a major challenge within the field of transplantation over the past few decades. Due to aggressive recurrence post‐transplant, patients with hepatitis B have been excluded from the benefits of both solid organ and bone marrow transplants.

The hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is the leading cause of persistent liver diseases, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the precise mechanism underlying the development of HBV-related diseases is not fully understood. In addition, the therapeutic strategies for the diseases are less than optimum.
