Current diagnosis of occult or cryptic hepatitis B [PDF]
Einstein (São Paulo), 2005 The present article presents a kind of hepatitis B in patients whodo not have the surface antigen (HbsAg) detectable in sera. It hasbeen described in different parts of the world and is known todayas “occult or criptic hepatitis B” and its importance has

Hepatitis B antigen, hepatitis B antibody, and subtypes in leprosy [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1977 The prevalence of hepatitis B antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B antibody (HBsAb), and subtypes in 242 cases of leprosy is reported. Patients were divided into three subgroups, lepromatous (174), tuberculoid (55), and borderline (13). A total of 131 patients were tested on admission; the remaining 111 had been institutionalized for a period of 3 months or ...

Monoclonal Antibodies Specific for Hepatitis B e Antigen and Hepatitis B Core Antigen
Hybridoma, 2011 Despite effective vaccination programs in many countries, HBV infection is still a serious health problem throughout the world; more than 2 billion people have been infected with Hepatitis B virus (HBV). The serologic markers are crucial indicators in clinical diagnosis of HBV infection. The persistent presence of anti-HBc is associated with chronicity,

Hepatitis B e antigen-negative chronic hepatitis B [PDF]
Hepatology, 2001 Summary HBeAg-negative CHB has now a worldwide distribution, developing in the course of HBeAg-positive chronic HBV infection during or after the phase of HBeAg loss and its seroconversion to anti-HBe. It is caused by replicating noncytopathic HBV mutants either unable to produce HBeAg (precore mutants) or with down-regulated transcription of the ...

The influence of HLA matching on cytomegalovirus hepatitis and chronic rejection after liver transplantation [PDF]
, 1993 Previous findings in liver transplantation patients have raised the concept that HLA plays a dualistic role. HLA matching will reduce rejection but may augment MHC restricted cellular immune mechanisms of liver allograft injury. To evaluate this concept,
