Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B core-related antigen (HBcrAg) levels are useful to identify inactive carriers among HBeAg-negative patients infected by different hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes. METHODS: In all, 202 consecutive HBeAg-negative patients with chronic hepatitis B, 135 inactive carriers and 67 with HBV activity, were prospectively followed for 1...
