Abstract:
Hepatitis B is a liver inflammation caused by hepatitis B virus (HBV) and can be diagnosed in clinical stage by hepatitis B core antibody from IgM class (anti-HBcIgM). Hepatitis B core antibody from IgG class (Anti-HBcIgG) appears quickly after IgM, reaching high titers in chronic hepatitis, and remains even after cure. Since hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) is the first antibody identified and sometimes the only marker detected during the course of infection, it can be used both to indicate HBV acute infection (anti-HBc-IgM) and to identify individuals who have come into contact with the

ABSTRACTThe human papillomavirus type 16/18 (HPV-16/18) AS04-adjuvanted cervical cancer vaccine is licensed for females aged 10 years and above and is therefore likely to be coadministered with other licensed vaccines, such as hepatitis B. In this randomized, open-label study, we compared the immunogenicity of the hepatitis B vaccine administered alone (HepB group) or with the HPV-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine (HepB+HPV group) in healthy women aged 20 to 25 years (clinical trial NCT00637195). The hepatitis B vaccine was given at 0, 1, 2, and 12 months (an accelerated schedule which may be requ

Background: Hepatitis B infection is common in Dialysis population. Hemodialysis patients have high risk of hepatitis B virus transmission not only due to frequent blood or blood product transmission, decreased response to Hepatitis B vaccine and length on hemodialysis but also due to their immunosuppressed state. Hepatitis B vaccination has the potential to reduce the risk of HBsAg infection in dialysis units. Effective vaccination, blood donor screening, the use of erythropoietin and the isolation of HBV carriers have successfully regulated HBV infection in hemodialysis units (1). This study
