Outstanding characteristics of HBV ??
- Acute & chronic hepatitis
- Hepatocellular carcinoma
Antigens of HBV ??
- HBsAg
- HBcAg
- HBeAg
s-c-e
Surface antigen of HBV ??
HBsAg
HBsAg importance ???
Lab diagnosis & immunization
671
Core antigen of HBV ??
HBcAg
The antigen that secreted from infected cell is called ??
HBeAg
Core antigen function In HBV ??
Forms the nucleocapsid core of the virion
671
HBeAg indicator of —??
Infectivity/ Transmissibility
671
Horizontal transmission of HBV ??
- Transfusion of infected unscreened blood products
- Sexual intercourse
- Injection drugs
- Tattos
- Close living quaters
671
Outcome of subclinical infection by HBV >??
Recovery
672
Vertical transmission of HBV ??
- HBsAg (+) Mother
- Delivery birth canal
- Post natal-Breast feeding \Prenatal - Placenta
672
Complications of HBV ??
- Fulminant live failure
- Chronic liver hepatitis
- Cirrhosis of liver
- Hepatocellular Ca
672
Acute hepatitis outcome ??
=Recovery
=Fulminant liver failure
672
Chronic carrier of HBV outcome ??
- Cirrhosis of liver
- Hepatocellular Ca
672
Antigens of HBV in the serum ??
- HBsAg
- HBeAg
673
Acute liver failure HBsAg state ??
-
negative
673
Active ionfection indicator which antigen ??
HBsAg
673
Antobodies of HBV in the serum ??
- Anti HBc IgM
- Anti HBs IgG
- Anti HBe IgM
673
In highly infectious patient which antigen in serum ??
HBeAg
673
Anti HBs IgG IN blood indicated ??
- Previous infection
- Previous vaccination
673
Surest marker of Active infection ??
Anti HBc IgM
674
Detection of Anti HBe IgM is —-??
- Recovery
- Low transmissibility
674
Strong evidence of infectious virions is present is ——–??
Viral DNA
674
Previous infection discovered by Anti HBsAg IgG ??
(+) Anti HBc `
673
Previous vaccination discovered by Anti HBsAg IgG ??
(-) Anti HBc
Window period in HBV infection ??
Time between the disappearance of a specific antigen & the appearance of antibody against that particular antigen
675
Which seromarker is positive during window period ??
Anti-HBc IgM Ab
675
The most important & readily detectable seromarker ???
HBsAg
675
If I found HBsAg (-)
is it free from HBV ??
NOOOOO
maybe patient in window period
675
Importance of window period in HIV ??
Diagnosis become difficult
675
What is the next procedure ??
Check the Anti HBc IgM
675
HBsAg in undetectable level when ??
3-6 month after infection
676
Tx of HBV ??
Pegylated alpha interferon
676
First detected Ab in HBV ??
Anti HBc IgM
676
