Our results suggest that the receipt of 2 doses of the HepB-CpG vaccine over 1 month may be associated with significantly higher and earlier hepatitis B vaccination series completion than 3 doses of the HepB-alum vaccine over 6 months. Our study also found that series completion was lower ...
Information verified included the type of hepatitis B vaccination, the dose, the time of vaccination, and the site of vaccination. All children enrolled in this study had completed a three-dose recombinant hepatitis B vaccination schedule (one dose on the day of birth, one dose at 1 month of...
Antibody response to vaccination with hepatitis B vaccine (HB-Vax) was evaluated in 43 staff, 81 dialysis patients and 12 non-dialysed uraemic patients. We confirmed less frequent seroconversion and lower concentration of antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) in dialysis patients despite...
