Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Anti-hepatitis e antigen-positive chronic hepatitis B is a progressive liver disease associated with precore mutant hepatitis B virus (HBV) and poor response to interferon. Therefore, precore mutant HBV may behave as an interferon-resistant virus. The relations between the prevalences of wild-type and precore mutant HBVs in baseline viremias and response to interferon were analyzed. METHODS: Sera from...
