Hepatitis B surface antigen associated nephrotic syndrome
Annals of Tropical Paediatrics, 1988Hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been reported in association with the nephrotic syndrome from different parts of the world, but its role as a cause of the pathological findings of nephrotic syndrome is still controversial. We report seven nephrotic children with positive hepatitis B markers in which members of their families were also positive for the ...

Hepatitis B Surface Antigen in Human Tears
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1978The incidence of hepatitis B virus infection has been increasing every year in the United States, particularly among medical personnel. Only half of these cases are associated with exposure to blood or blood products. Respiratory, fecal-oral, and venereal methods of transmission of hepatitis B virus infection are supported by epidemiological evidence ...

A New Hepatitis B Virus Surface Antigen
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1976A new determinant of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs Ag), g, which is distinct from the previously identified determinants a, d, y, w, and r, was studied. This new antigen tended to be associated with the d antigen; it was found in 97% of ad specimens and in 15% of ay specimens.

Origin of salivary hepatitis B surface antigen
European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1980Abstract –Low titers of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is often found in mixed saliva of antigenemic individuals. In the present study the occurrence of antigen in saliva was correlated to the content of albumin, which is not synthesized by the salivary glands, but represents a leakage into the oral cavity due to hemorrhage, exudation or ...

Etiology of Sporadic Hepatitis B Surface Antigen-Negative Hepatitis
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1977We studied serologically 45 adults who had sporadic acute viral hepatitis that was hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) negative. Two cases were due to hepatitis B virus, as demonstrated by the appearance of antibody to hepatitis B core antigen. In three other patients, the serologic pattern was inconclusive.

Hepatitis B surface antigen monitoring and management of chronic hepatitis B
Journal of Viral Hepatitis, 2011Summary. Serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) levels reflect intrahepatic hepatitis B virus (HBV) covalently closed circular DNA and may be a valuable addition to HBV DNA in the management of patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Among HBeAg‐negative CHB patients with low HBV DNA levels, HBsAg quantification may help distinguish those with ...

Hepatitis B caused by a hepatitis B surface antigen escape mutant
Journal of Gastroenterology, 2008Amino acid substitutions within the S gene involving the major antigenic a determinant of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) surface antigen (HBsAg) have been detected in cases of failure of immunization against the virus. Our report showed development of clinical hepatitis in presence of antibody to HBsAg in a healthy individual.

Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg)
1985The observations (a) that antibody directed against surface antigen (anti-HBs) becomes most prevalent following recovery from acute type B hepatitis; (b) that it is often present in asymptomatic carriers without detectable HBsAg and (c) that anti-HBs may persist for many years after initial exposure to HBV suggest that anti-HBs containing serum ...

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1977
Antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) is a sensitive indicator of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, anti-HBc has been found in only a few patients with chronic hepatitis. Therefore, we tested for anti-HBc in 124 sera from 67 patients with histologically proven chronic hepatitis by the indirect fluorescent antibody technique.

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 ...
