Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) precore (PC) and basal core promoter (BCP) variants are well known; however, their prevalence in North America is unclear, especially among hepatitis B e antigen-negative patients. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of PC⁄BCP mutations and their clinical significance. METHODS: One hundred twenty-eight patients positive for both hepatitis B surface antigen and hepatitis B...
