High impact information on Hepatitis B

  • Lamivudine in the treatment of acute hepatitis B [11].
  • CONCLUSIONS: Since the institution of Taiwan's program of universal hepatitis B vaccination, the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in children has declined [5].
  • Association between an MHC class II allele and clearance of hepatitis B virus in the Gambia [12].
  • The 87 nucleotides in the precore region of the hepatitis B virus were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction and then directly sequenced [13].
  • The presence of HBV was identified by polymerase-chain-reaction amplification of viral DNA in serum from the source patient, the five patients with fulminant hepatitis B, and five controls with acute, self-limited hepatitis B [14].
