Hepatitis B virus is an important sexually transmitted organism that causes not only disease in sexual partners but important perinatal illness as well. The obstetrician-gynecologist must be aware of the epidemiology and the pathophysiology of HBV infections, as well as strategies for treatment and prevention.

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 ...

The high rate of infection with hepatitis B virus in certain defined populations in industralized countries and among the general population in many non-industrialized countries stresses the need for hepatitis B vaccines. Hepatitis B, one of at least six different forms of viral hepatitis, may progress to chronic liver disease, including chronic ...

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.

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 ...

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.
