To be given when child is 1-2 months old. For children who have not been vaccinated at all since birth, they should receive three successive doses of HepB on a schedule of 0,1,2 months and 6 months as early as possible. Minimum interval between the first and second dose is one mont...
Hepatitis A and B disease burden persists in the US. We assessed hepatitis A and hepatitis B vaccination series completion rates among 350,240 commercial/Medicare and 12,599 Medicaid enrollees aged ≥19 years. A vaccination series was considered as completed provided that the minimum interval ...
and 4 months) have been demonstrated to elicit dose-specific and final rates of seroprotection similar to those obtained on a 0-, 1-, and 6-month schedule.33Minimum intervals between doses should always be respected (Table 11.3), but prolonging the interval does not alter theimmunogenicityor...
52,53 In a meta-analysis evaluating performance of transient elastography in patients with CHB, the diagnostic accuracy for quantifying liver fibrosis was good; the mean area under the receiver operating characteristic for diagnosing fibrosis (F2) was 0.859 (95% confidence interval, 0.857–0.860), ...
Hepatitis B disease is a communicable disease that is caused by the hepatitis B virus and has become a significant health problem in the world. It is a contagious disease that is transmittable from person to person either horizontally or vertically. This current study is aimed at sensitivity anal...
Bayesian optimization is mainly used to solve computationally expensive black-box optimization problems using Bayes' theorem to search for finding the maximum or minimum value of the objective function, which is characterized by using the previously observed prior knowledge at each iteration for the ...

In OWSA, the minimum and maximum values of key model inputs were obtained from the model input references (e.g., 95% confidence interval or minimum and maximum range) and published literature. If there were no studies reporting minimum or maximum value for input parameters, arbitrary minimum ...
Three-dose series can be started at any age with the minimum interval between doses as follows: 4 weeks between the first and second doses, 8 weeks between the second and third doses, and at least 16 weeks between the first and third doses. Special note: Monovalent vaccine brands are ...
Vaccine completion was assessed at the minimum recommended dose spacing and at 12 and 24 months after the minimum recommended spacing for each vaccine (Table 1). For the three-dose HepB and HepA-HepB vaccines, we estimated completion of two doses and completion of three doses. 2.3. Stati...
