Screening for serological markers of hepatitis B virus infection was done on 500 pregnant mothers. HBsAg, AntiHBs and HBeAg were done. HBsAg was positive in 3.6%, AntiHBs in 17.4% and HBeAg in 0.4% cases. The infants born to the asymptomatic HBsAg carrier mothers were followed up to 6 months to determine the vertical transmission of HBV infection. Rate of transmission of infection from HBsAg positive mothers to infants were 16.66% irrespective of HBeAg status, whereas it was nearly 100% in case of HBeAg positive mothers. All of the HBsAg positive infants developed the antigenemia between 3-6 months of age, supporting the hypothesis that intrapartum transmission is the major mode of vertical transmission.
对500名孕妇进行了乙肝病毒感染血清学标志物筛查。检测了乙肝表面抗原(HBsAg)、乙肝表面抗体(AntiHBs)和乙肝e抗原(HBeAg)。HBsAg阳性率为3.6%,AntiHBs阳性率为17.4%,HBeAg阳性率为0.4%。对无症状HBsAg携带者母亲所生婴儿进行了长达6个月的随访,以确定乙肝病毒感染的垂直传播情况。无论HBeAg状态如何,HBsAg阳性母亲将感染传播给婴儿的比率为16.66%,而HBeAg阳性母亲的传播率近100%。所有HBsAg阳性婴儿在3至6个月大时出现抗原血症,支持了分娩时传播是垂直传播主要方式这一假说。
