RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of gravidas with HBV in Nanfang Hospital from 2008 to 2014. Methods 22 906 gravidas were retrospectively investigated. Results The HBsAg positive rates were 11.64% and 6.16% when the gravidas were divided into Cantonese and non-Cantonese groups (χ2 =193.370, P < 0.005). The ALT abnormal rates in HBeAg positive and HBeAg negative gravidas were 17.96% and 6.68% (χ2=62.594, P<0.005). Conclusion The HBsAg positive rate of gravidas in Guangdong and the ALT abnormal rate of HBeAg positive gravidas are higher.
RESUMEN
Subcellular localizaton of HBcAg have been found to be related to the activity of liver disease and HBV replication. The aim of this study was to determine whether the degree of expression of HBcAg in the hepatocyte nucleus and cytoplasm reflects the level of viral replication and histological activity in chronic HBV infection. A total of 102 patients with biopsy proven chronic hepatitis B were included. There was a highly significant correlation between the levels of HBV DNA in serum and the degree of expression of HBcAg in the nucleus for HBeAg-positive(p=0.000) and negative patients(p=0.04). There was a highly significant, correlation between the degrees of expression of HBcAg in hepatocyte cytoplasm and histologic activities (p<0.01) for HBeAg-positive patients. The degrees of expression of HBcAg in the hepatocyte cytoplasm correlated positively with the lobular activities (p<0.01), but not correlated with the portal activity and fibrosis for HBeAg-negative patients. In conclusion, in the young patients with chronic B viral hepatitis, the degree of expression of HBcAg in the hepatocyte nucleus may affect viral load, and the degree of expression of HBcAg in the hepatocyte cytoplasm may affect histologic activities of liver disease.
