A community-based seroepidemiological survey of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia was conducted in 1994 to inform on the transmission dynamics and control of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Venous blood from 4736 individuals under 50 years of age from 1262 households, selected using stratified cluster-sampling, was screened for HBV markers using commercial ELISAs. HBsAg prevalence was 7% (95 % CI 6-8), ...
INTRODUCTION Reductions in the prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and carriage, decreases in liver cancer incidence, and changes in patterns of liver dysfunctions are described after hepatitis B vaccination. METHODS We conducted a population-based seroprevalence study aimed at estimating the HBV prevalence and risk of infection in the rural area of Lábrea following nineteen years...
Background and Aims: Hepatitis D virus (HDV) can infect human population either as a superinfection or concurrent hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. It is expected that presence of HDV infection is more prevalent in endemic HBV areas. Overall 5% of Iranian general populations are chronic HBV carriers. The aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of HDV and its clinical impact in ...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Evidence is accumulating that hepatitis B virus (HBV) is present in patients who are hepatitis B surface antigen negative but have antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc). Furthermore, recent studies have shown that patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who have antibody to hepatitis C virus (HCV) often possess HBV related serological markers. Data on the seroprevalence...
The substantial global burden of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is increasingly recognised. Recent estimates suggest that HBV infection caused 686 000 deaths in 2013, placing HBV in the top 20 causes of human mortality. Despite this, comprehensive reviews of data regarding the burden of chronic HBV at regional and national levels have been scarce. This is an area of particular importance in ...
To inform current and future vaccination strategies, we describe the seroepidemiology of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in ten representative European countries using standardized serology that allowed international comparisons. Between 1996 and 2003, national serum banks were compiled by collecting residual sera or by community sampling; sera were then tested by each country using its prefe...
Background: Hepatitis B virus is a DNA virus, causing acute as well as chronic liver disease including cirrhosis & hepatocellular carcinoma. Carriers of Hepatitis B are asymptomatic individuals without manifest disease harboring infection and capable of transmitting infection. Transmission of infection occurs through blood transfusion, needles, body fluids and sexual intercourse. Clinical recog...
BACKGROUND Preventing and managing hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is an important public health issue worldwide, and Taiwan is one of the countries where viral hepatitis is most endemic. Previous studies have shown that patients with serious mental illnesses have a higher risk for hepatitis infection. We investigated the prevalence of HBV and HCV among institution...
Aims: This study was carried out to explore the prevalence of HBV and HCV infections among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients and risk factors. This crosssectional study was conducted at BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh between January 2012 and March 2013. Subjects and Methods: A total of 1024 type 2 diabetics were included. Wellstructured questionnaire was used to collect demog...
