Hepatitis B virus genotype B is associated with earlier HBeAg seroconversion compared with hepatitis B virus genotype C.

Gastroenterology - 1 Jun 2002

Chu Chi-Jen, Hussain Munira, Lok Anna S F

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Recent studies suggest that hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotype B is associated with less active liver disease than HBV genotype C. The aim of our study was to determine if HBV genotype B is associated with higher rates of spontaneous hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion compared with genotype C. METHODS: A retrospective study using stored sera from 332 Chinese patients with chronic HBV...
