## Abstract Antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) (anti‐HBs) can exist in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. To date, little is known about the association of concurrent HBsAg and anti‐HBs (concurrent HBsAg/ anti‐HBs) with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of t
The age-specific prevalence of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and its antibody (anti-HBe) were studied by radioimmunoassay, and compared in a large series of patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, including 268 asymptomatic carriers, 389 chronic hepatitis, 114 liver cirrhosis, and 2
