Background Hepatitis B (HB) has been classified as moderate-to-highly endemic in Indonesia. HB vaccination, the most effective method to prevent HB viral transmission, induces protective antibodies against HB surface antigen (anti-HBs). However, these antibodies decline in titer over time. Studies...

It is crucial for clinicians to understand the need to screen for hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc status), proper interpretation of HBV biomarkers, and
(anti-HCV Ab positive and hepatitis B surface antigen negative) who underwent curative hepatic resection were evaluated. Anti-HCV Ab titers were measured using a third-generation enzyme immunoassay, and patients were divided into high (n= 41) and low (n= 41) titer groups to compare their ...
