Assessment of fibrosis is important in chronic hepatitis B for a number of reasons including decision-making regarding treatment and predicting prognosis.Currently liver biopsy is considered the gold standard for assessing liver histology. However, since liver biopsy has significant limitations,the quest for a non-invasive alternative to assess hepatic fibrosis continues. A review of published literature reveals that extensive research has been carried out in this field, and several simple to complicated alternatives to liver biopsy for assessing hepatic fibrosis have been evaluated. A few have shown promise too, but we are still short of an ideal alternative to liver biopsy. Despite the fact that much has been done, we still have a long way to go before we can finally say farewell to liver biopsy.
评估纤维化在慢性乙型肝炎中很重要,原因有很多,包括治疗决策和预测预后。目前肝活检被认为是评估肝脏组织学的金标准。然而,由于肝活检有明显的局限性,对评估肝纤维化的非侵入性替代方法的探索仍在继续。对已发表文献的回顾表明,在这一领域进行了广泛的研究,并对几种简单到复杂的肝活检评估肝纤维化的替代方法进行了评估。一些方法也显示出了希望,但我们仍然缺乏肝脏活检的理想替代方法。尽管我们已经做了很多工作,但在最终告别肝脏活检之前,我们还有很长的路要走。

Background: Hepatitis B is a major health problem in India. To prevent transmission and progression of the disease in the community, proper community awareness about the disease, including prevention, is necessary. Our objective was to study the awareness amongst the general population about hepatitis B virus, including knowledge regarding vaccine. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in Department of Gastroenterology of SCB Medical College. The patients attending the OPD and their attendants were subjected to a questionnaire about different aspects of hepatitis B. Binary logistic regression analysis (SPSS 16) was employed to assess the statistical importance of the observations. Results: In all, 682 individuals (65% patients, 35% non-patients) were studied; 78% were males while 22% were females. Majority were in the age group of 31-40 years. 65% hailed from rural area; 65% were poor. About half of the subjects attended state run medical centers for medical attention; only 17% preferred medical colleges. Awareness about the disease and the vaccine among the subjects was 38% and 32%, respectively. 50% of those who were aware had no knowledge about route of transmission, infectivity, or importance of vaccination. Educated individuals were more aware about hepatitis B vaccine (P Conclusions: Only about one-third of the population in coastal Eastern India are aware about hepatitis B and its vaccine. Less than a third of the population are vaccinated for hepatitis B. The educated, especially those who read newspapers and listened to radio, were more aware about the disease/vaccine. The government health agencies and physicians should work together to educate the masses about hepatitis B and its vaccine.
背景:乙型肝炎是印度的一个主要健康问题。为了防止该疾病在社区传播和发展,必须提高社区对该疾病的认识,包括预防。我们的目的是研究普通人群对乙型肝炎病毒的认识,包括对疫苗的了解。材料与方法:本研究在SCB医学院消化内科进行。在门诊就诊的患者及其护理人员接受了关于乙肝不同方面的问卷调查。采用二元logistic回归分析(SPSS 16)来评估观察结果的统计学重要性。结果:共研究了682人(65%为患者,35%为非患者);78%为男性,22%为女性。大多数患者年龄在31-40岁之间。65%来自农村地区;65%是穷人。大约一半的受试者到国立医疗中心就医;只有17%的人选择医学院。调查对象对该病和疫苗的知晓率分别为38%和32%。知道的人中有50%对传播途径、传染性或接种疫苗的重要性一无所知。结论:在印度东部沿海地区,只有约三分之一的人口了解乙型肝炎及其疫苗。只有不到三分之一的人口接种了乙肝疫苗。受过教育的人,特别是那些读报纸和听广播的人,对这种疾病/疫苗的认识更高。政府卫生机构和医生应共同努力,对大众进行乙型肝炎及其疫苗的教育。

Perinatal transmission of Hepatitis B 乙型肝炎的围产期传播
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.4103/0972-9747.76906
S. Chowdhury, C. Eapen
There is a high global prevalence of hepatitis B. Perinatal transmission of hepatitis B is the predominant mode of transmission in high prevalence areas. The risk of progression to chronic liver disease and development of hepatocellular carcinoma in individuals who acquire the infection at birth is high. Perinatal transmission of hepatitis B can be reduced by early identification of hepatitis B virus (HBV) carrier mothers. High maternal viral loads and maternal serum HBeAg positivity increase the risk of perinatal transmission of hepatitis B. Passive and active immunoprophylaxis at birth reduces the risk of perinatal transmission of hepatitis B in approximately 95%. Failure of immunoprophylaxis has been related to possible in utero transmission of HBV. Reducing maternal HBV DNA levels by treatment with lamivudine in the last trimester of pregnancy in high viremic mothers may help reduce the risk of perinatal transmission of hepatitis B.
全球乙型肝炎流行率很高。在高流行地区,围产期乙型肝炎传播是主要的传播方式。在出生时获得感染的个体进展为慢性肝病和发展为肝细胞癌的风险很高。通过早期识别乙肝病毒(HBV)携带者母亲,可以减少围产期乙型肝炎传播。高母体病毒载量和母体血清HBeAg阳性增加了围产期乙肝传播的风险。出生时被动和主动免疫预防可将围产期乙肝传播的风险降低约95%。免疫预防失败与HBV可能在子宫内传播有关。在高病毒血症母亲妊娠最后三个月用拉米夫定治疗降低母体HBV DNA水平可能有助于降低乙型肝炎围产期传播的风险。

Flares on and off therapy during chronic HBV infection: Pathogenesis, significance and management 慢性HBV感染治疗前后的耀斑:发病机制、意义和管理

Approximately 400 million people worldwide are chronically infected with the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Chronic infection with HBV can lead to progressive liver diseases including cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. During treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, flares of inflammatory activity are a well known phenomenon. Flares can be life threatening but have also been associated with virological response. While, interferon induced flares have been attributed to the stimulatory effect of IFN, and may precede HBeAg seroconversion, Lamivudine related flares are seen during treatment and after withdrawal of lamivudine, which are probably caused by reoccurrence of HBV replication, and have been associated with decompensation of liver disease. These flares play an important role in the treatment with Peg-IFN α-2b alone or in combination with lamivudine, and patients with pre-existing cirrhosis are at greater risk for experiencing a flare. Furthermore, host induced flares but not virus induced flares may herald a response to therapy. For optimisation of treatment, it is necessary to understand the virological and immunological mechanisms which induce the specific flare patterns. This article reviews the pathogenesis, significance and management of flares encountered during and after cessation of treatment of patients with chronic HBV infection.
全世界约有4亿人慢性感染乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)。慢性HBV感染可导致进行性肝病,包括肝硬化、肝功能衰竭和肝细胞癌。在慢性乙型肝炎(CHB)患者的治疗过程中,炎症活动的爆发是一个众所周知的现象。耀斑可危及生命,但也与病毒学反应有关。虽然干扰素诱导的急性发作归因于IFN的刺激作用,并可能在HBeAg血清转化之前发生,但在拉米夫定治疗期间和停药后出现拉米夫定相关的急性发作,这可能是由HBV复制的再次发生引起的,并与肝脏疾病代偿失调有关。这些耀斑在Peg-IFN α-2b单独或与拉米夫定联合治疗中起重要作用,并且已有肝硬化的患者经历耀斑的风险更大。此外,宿主诱导的耀斑而不是病毒诱导的耀斑可能预示着对治疗的反应。为了优化治疗,有必要了解引起特定耀斑模式的病毒学和免疫学机制。本文综述了慢性乙型肝炎病毒感染患者在治疗期间和停止治疗后遇到的耀斑的发病机制,意义和处理。

Hepatitis B is a global healthcare problem. An estimated one third of the global population have been infected with the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Various guidelines have been proposed for management of chronic hepatitis B. These guidelines have similarities and differences and are changed from time to time. Here, we have reviewed the management guidelines of chronic hepatitis B published after 2007 and highlighted the similarities and differences between their different recommendations.

Managing chronic hepatitis B (CHB) during pregnancy remains a challenging task as there is no information on the consequences to the fetus. Telbivudine, an oral nucleoside analog (NA), is a potential therapeutic option during pregnancy, but clinical experience is lacking. We report on the safety and efficacy of telbivudine 600 mg/day administered to a 20-year-old Indian woman with hepatitis B e antigen negative CHB, who became pregnant during treatment. Telbivudine was continued with monitoring of maternal hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels during pregnancy and after delivery. The patient maintained polymerase chain reaction (PCR) undetectable HBV DNA and normal ALT levels with telbivudine throughout pregnancy. At birth, HBV DNA was undetectable by PCR in the newborn. No congenital abnormalities were noted. In conclusion, telbivudine therapy during pregnancy was effective in maintaining undetectable viremia, and no safety concerns were noted in the mother and child. Additional clinical studies are warranted.
在妊娠期管理慢性乙型肝炎(CHB)仍然是一项具有挑战性的任务,因为没有关于对胎儿后果的信息。替比夫定是一种口服核苷类似物(NA),是妊娠期间的潜在治疗选择,但缺乏临床经验。我们报告了替比夫定600mg /天对一名患有乙型肝炎e抗原阴性CHB的20岁印度妇女的安全性和有效性,该妇女在治疗期间怀孕。在妊娠期间和分娩后继续使用替比夫定监测产妇乙型肝炎病毒(HBV) DNA和丙氨酸转氨酶(ALT)水平。患者在整个妊娠期间使用替比夫定维持聚合酶链反应(PCR)检测不到HBV DNA和正常的ALT水平。新生儿出生时,PCR检测不到HBV DNA。未发现先天性异常。综上所述,替比夫定在妊娠期治疗对于维持未检测到的病毒血症是有效的,并且没有注意到母亲和孩子的安全问题。进一步的临床研究是必要的。

Screening for chronic hepatitis B. 筛查慢性乙型肝炎。
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.4103/0972-9747.162105
K. Shenoy
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major public health problem worldwide. More than 2 billion people have been infected; more than 350 million present with chronic HBV infection. A significant proportion (15-40%) of chronic HBV infected patients develop liver cirrhosis, liver failure, and primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), making chronic hepatitis B one of the 10 major causes of death worldwide. The practice of preventive medicine involves three primary tasks: Screening, counseling, and immunization or chemoprophylaxis. Screening healthy individuals incurs an ethical obligation on the clinician. Persons who are most likely to be actively infected with HBV should be tested for chronic HBV infection. Testing should include a serologic assay for HBsAg offered as a part of routine care and be accompanied by appropriate counseling and referral for recommended clinical evaluation and care. To determine susceptibility among persons who are at ongoing risk for infection and recommended for vaccination, total anti-HBc or anti-HBs also should be tested at the time of serologic testing for chronic HBV infection. Recommendations related to screening for chronic HBV infection have been summarized in this article.
乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)感染是世界范围内的一个主要公共卫生问题。已有20多亿人受到感染;超过3.5亿人患有慢性乙型肝炎病毒感染。相当大比例(15-40%)的慢性乙型肝炎感染患者发展为肝硬化、肝功能衰竭和原发性肝细胞癌(HCC),使慢性乙型肝炎成为全球10大死亡原因之一。预防医学的实践包括三个主要任务:筛查、咨询和免疫或化学预防。筛查健康个体是临床医生的道德义务。最有可能感染乙型肝炎病毒的人应进行慢性乙型肝炎病毒感染检测。检测应包括HBsAg血清学检测,作为常规护理的一部分,并伴有适当的咨询和推荐的临床评估和护理转诊。为了确定持续存在感染风险并建议接种疫苗的人群的易感性,在进行慢性HBV感染血清学检测时也应检测总抗- hbc或抗- hbs。本文总结了有关慢性HBV感染筛查的建议。

Interferon for HBV infection: Plain or Pegylated? Alone or in combination? Concurrent or sequential? 干扰素治疗HBV感染:普通还是聚乙二醇化?单独还是联合使用?并发还是顺序?
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.4103/0972-9747.190081

Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection is a significant global public health problem. Treatment options that have evolved rapidly over the last two decades have proven to be effective, but clear recommendations regarding the choice of first-line therapy are lacking. With the emergence of pegylated interferon (PEG IFN), conventional interferon has been relegated into the background and has a very limited role in the treatment of chronic Hepatitis B. Pegylated interferon α2a / 2b treatment has been documented to successfully achieve normalization of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and viral suppression in nearly half of the patients. However, HBsAg loss can be achieved only rarely. Combination therapy, comprising of pegylated interferon plus nucleos(t)ide analogs theoretically appear attractive because of the synergistic anti-viral and immunomodulatory actions, but the available present literature does not provide sufficient evidence to recommend the combination therapy. Patient selection is important for tailoring the therapy for patients with chronic hepatitis B. Pegylated interferon seems suitable for young patients with raised ALTs, moderately high viral load, and having Genotype A / B; the advantage being finite duration of therapy and no risk of emergence of drug resistance.
乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)感染是一个重大的全球公共卫生问题。在过去二十年中发展迅速的治疗方案已被证明是有效的,但缺乏关于一线治疗选择的明确建议。随着聚乙二醇干扰素(PEG IFN)的出现,传统干扰素在慢性乙型肝炎的治疗中已经退让,作用非常有限。聚乙二醇干扰素α2a / 2b治疗已成功实现近一半患者丙氨酸转氨酶(ALT)的正常化和病毒抑制。然而,HBsAg损失很少发生。由聚乙二醇化干扰素和核苷类似物组成的联合治疗,由于具有协同抗病毒和免疫调节作用,理论上看起来很有吸引力,但现有文献没有提供足够的证据来推荐联合治疗。患者选择对慢性乙型肝炎患者的治疗非常重要。聚乙二醇化干扰素似乎适用于ALTs升高、病毒载量中等高、基因型为A / B的年轻患者;其优点是治疗时间有限,没有出现耐药性的风险。

Treatment options that have evolved rapidly over the last two decades have proven to be effective, but clear recommendations regarding the choice of first-line therapy are lacking. With the emergence of pegylated interferon (PEG IFN), conventional interferon has been relegated into the background and has a very limited role in the treatment of chronic Hepatitis B. Pegylated interferon α2a / 2b treatment has been documented to successfully achieve normalization of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and viral suppression in nearly half of the patients. However, HBsAg loss can be achieved only rarely. Combination therapy, comprising of pegylated interferon plus nucleos(t)ide analogs theoretically appear attractive because of the synergistic anti-viral and immunomodulatory actions, but the available present literature does not provide sufficient evidence to recommend the combination therapy. Patient selection is important for tailoring the therapy for patients with chronic hepatitis B. Pegylated interferon seems suitable for young patients with raised ALTs, moderately high viral load, and having Genotype A / B; the advantage being finite duration of therapy and no risk of emergence of drug resistance.","PeriodicalId":345516,"journal":{"name":"Hepatitis B Annual","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127088763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hepatitis B virus [HBV] affects almost five per cent of the total population worldwide and majority of the affected population are detected incidentally without any symptoms. This mammoth pool of Hepatitis B virus infected population needs to be properly assessed and followed up to minimize morbidity and mortality in them. This article reviews literature related to this subset of HBV patients and attempts to provide a rational guideline to approach and manage them.
乙型肝炎病毒影响全世界近5%的人口,大多数受影响人口是偶然发现的,没有任何症状。需要对这一庞大的乙型肝炎病毒感染人群进行适当的评估和随访,以尽量减少他们的发病率和死亡率。本文回顾了与这类HBV患者相关的文献,并试图提供一个合理的指导方针来处理和管理他们。
