摘要
引言和目的甲型肝炎病毒和戊型肝炎病毒是一种对酸性和碱性介质以及低温具有高度抵抗力的生物。尽管这两种病毒的死亡率约为 1%,但据报道,在过去几十年中,这两种病毒的血清流行率高达 81.3%,因此了解这两种疾病的流行现状非常重要。研究人员招募了 18 岁以上、在 2023 年 6 月 1 日至 6 月 30 日期间在国家二十一世纪医学中心医院(Hospital de Especialidades Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI)学习或拥有肠胃病学学位的人。结果共招募了 23 人,其中男性占 60.9%(14 人),女性占 39.1%(9 人),年龄中位数为 29 岁,13.0% 的人来自墨西哥城(3 人),86.9% 的人来自墨西哥共和国其他州(20 人)。甲型肝炎病毒和戊型肝炎病毒的血清流行率分别为 17.3%(4 人)和 4.3%(1 人)。结论甲型肝炎病毒和戊型肝炎病毒的血清流行率比报告的要低,因此在医务人员等高危人群中采取预防措施至关重要。
Prevalence of Immunoglobulin G against Hepatitis A Virus and Hepatitis E Virus in healthcare personnel
Introduction and Objectives
The hepatitis A and hepatitis E viruses are organisms that stand out for their high resistance to acid and alkaline media, as well as to freezing temperatures. Despite presenting an approximate mortality of 1% for both viruses, a seroprevalence of up to 81.3% has been reported in previous decades, so it is important to know the current epidemiological status of both diseases.
Materials and Patients
Cross-sectional, descriptive, prospective and observational study. Individuals over 18 years of age were recruited, who were studying or had the degree of gastroenterologists at the Hospital de Especialidades Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI, in a period of time between June 01 and June 30, 2023. Blood samples were collected for detection of immunoglobulin G against hepatitis A and hepatitis E viruses and a demographic questionnaire was conducted to each of the participants.
Results
23 individuals were recruited, 60.9% men (n=14) and 39.1% women (n=9), with a median age of 29 years, 13.0% corresponding to individuals from Mexico City (n= 3) and 86.9% from other states of the Mexican Republic (n=20). A seroprevalence of 17.3% (n=4) and 4.3% (n=1) was reported for hepatitis A virus and hepatitis E virus, respectively.
Conclusions
There is a lower seroprevalence for hepatitis A and hepatitis E viruses than reported, so it is vitally important to take preventive measures in populations at risk of infection, such as health personnel.
