Trial summary

HBV infection is a dynamic process with complex interactions between virus replication and the host's immune response. The appearance of anti-HBs after HBV infection generally indicates recovery and immunity to HBV1 infection. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Characteristics of Hepatitis B HBsAg & HBsAc Carriers Simultaneously

HBV infection is a dynamic process with complex interactions between virus replication and the host's immune response. The appearance of anti-HBs after HBV infection generally indicates recovery and immunity to HBV1 infection. However, there are several published studies that describe the coexistence of the marker of chronic infection (HBsAg +) and the marker of functional cure (HBsAc +). There are contradictory studies on whether the coexistence of HBsAg/HBsAc implies a different clinical course.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. differences between immunocompetent patients with respect to immunocompromised ones.

    To compare if there are differences in the prevalence or clinical outcome according if the patient has any degree of immunosupresion or not.
