## Abstract Mongolia is highly endemic for hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) infections among apparently healthy adults. However, the ageβspecific prevalence of ongoing HBV, HCV, and HDV infections among children in Mongolia remains unknown. Therefore

A previous study revealed a high prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) RNA among 249 apparently healthy individuals (mean AE standard deviation age, 48.4 AE 13.9 years; 126 males and 123 females) in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. To investigate further the prevale
Mongolia is known for its high endemicity for hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) infections among apparently healthy individuals. However, there are little or no data on the prevalence and genotype distribution of HBV, HCV, and HDV among patients with c
One hundred ten consecutive patients (60 males and 50 females; age, mean AE standard deviation [SD], 22.6 AE 6.4 years; range 16-48 years) who were clinically diagnosed with sporadic acute hepatitis between December 2004 and January 2005 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, were studied. IgM antibodies to hepa
