Cross-sectional studies reported that hepatitis B core gene mutations are associated with active liver disease and responsiveness to interferon therapy. In view of the heterogeneity in published sequences, it is not possible to tell whether the differences in sequences observed were true mutations t
Genotype D occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections (OBIs) have a high frequency of amino acid substitutions in the major hydrophilic region of the small surface protein (S protein). This possibly reflects an escape mutation mechanism to evade detection by the host immune system. Mutations may also
## Background: The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) and the seroprevalence of hepatitis b virus (hbv) in this disease state are significantly higher in south india than in north india. because data on serologic studies do not project the actual association between the two parameters, thi
