The persistence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), e antigen (HGeAg) and antibodies to e antigen (anti-HBe) was studied retrospectively in 197 Finnish voluntary blood donors, who had been found positive for HBsAg by routine screening in 1970 or 1971. Two samples were available from each donor: the first was taken in 1970 or 1971 and the second in 1978; the average interval between the specimens was 7.6 years. All except one (99.5%) of the donors remained HGsAg carriers during the whole study period. HBeAg was detected initially in 3 (2%) cases, all of whom lost HBeAg after the follow-up, and 2 converted to anti-HBe-positive. Anti-HBe was found in the first samples of 158 (80%) HGsAg carriers, 154 (97%) of whom were still positive for anti-HBe in the second samples. These results suggest that the HBsAg carrier stage is stable as for the presence of HBsAg and anti-HBe.
对197名芬兰自愿献血者的乙肝表面抗原(HBsAg)、e抗原(HBeAg)及e抗原抗体(抗-HBe)的持续情况进行了回顾性研究,这些献血者在1970年或1971年的常规筛查中被发现HBsAg呈阳性。每位献血者有两份样本:第一份于1970年或1971年采集,第二份于1978年采集;两份样本之间的平均间隔时间为7.6年。在整个研究期间,除1人(99.5%)外,所有献血者均为HBsAg携带者。最初在3例(2%)中检测到HBeAg,所有这些病例在随访后均失去HBeAg,且2例转为抗-HBe阳性。在158例(80%)HBsAg携带者的第一份样本中发现了抗-HBe,其中154例(97%)在第二份样本中抗-HBe仍为阳性。这些结果表明,就HBsAg和抗-HBe的存在而言,HBsAg携带阶段是稳定的。
