Sera from 494 non-icteric patients admitted with illnesses other than overt hepatitis into the various hospitals in rural and urban Malaysia were tested for IgG antibody to hepatitis A virus. The overall antibody prevalence rate was 67.0% with rates increasing steadily from childhood 10 years old and under (39.4%) to middle-age and above (96.0%). No significant differences were noted between males (68.4%) and females (65.3%). The highest rate was in the Indians (80.6%), the lowest in the Chinese (55.9%) with Malays occupying intermediate position (70.3%). The rate in the rural patients (74.7%) was higher than that in the urban patients (65.5%) especially in the 21 to 40 year age-group where the rural patients had a rate of 96.7% compared with that in urban patients (61.1%). A comparison of antibody prevalence rates in different countries was made.
对马来西亚城乡各医院收治的494例非黄疸型患者（所患疾病并非显性肝炎）的血清进行了甲型肝炎病毒IgG抗体检测。总体抗体流行率为67.0%，从10岁及以下儿童时期（39.4%）到中年及以上（96.0%），流行率稳步上升。男性（68.4%）和女性（65.3%）之间未发现显著差异。印度人的流行率最高（80.6%），中国人的流行率最低（55.9%），马来人处于中间位置（70.3%）。农村患者的流行率（74.7%）高于城市患者（65.5%），尤其是在21至40岁年龄组，农村患者的流行率为96.7%，而城市患者为61.1%。对不同国家的抗体流行率进行了比较。
