Filter by:At present, whether the hepatitis B vaccine (HBV) can be vaccinated on time after neonatal surgery has become a common problem for children's families, neonatal surgeons, and vaccination departments, but there are few relevant studies at home and abroad, and there is no corresponding guide or consensus. In the early stage, our research team investigated the vaccination plans of the vaccination units in the main urban areas of Chongqing for such children through telephone follow-up, and found that the practices of each unit were different, all based on their own experience, and there was no clear evidence to support the vaccination or should not be vaccinated, which may cause some children to miss the best vaccination time or increase the risk of vaccination. The center is a relatively large neonatal surgery center in southwest China. The diagnosis and treatment of neonatal digestive tract malformations is at the leading level in China. It can carry out various neonatal operations such as neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis, congenital anorectal malformations, and congenital megacolon. On average, it carries out more than 30 third and fourth grade neonatal gastrointestinal operations every month. It has accumulated a lot of experience in the follow-up of newborns, There is a large amount of clinical data support for children who need to be vaccinated after surgery, so it is planned to follow up the second and third doses of hepatitis B vaccine and whether there are adverse reactions related to vaccination for children who need to be vaccinated after gastrointestinal surgery in the neonatal period, and at the same time check the production of HBsAb after vaccination, The immune response and adverse reactions of hepatitis B vaccine at different time points after surgery were studied to increase clinical evidence for the determination of hepatitis B vaccine vaccination program for newborns after surgery.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major global health issue with 257 million chronically infected individuals. Of note, China has the largest population accounting for one third of the world's infected population. Approximately, about 300 000 people die each year due to the consequences of HBV. In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) proposed the goal for elimination of hepatitis B as public health threat by 2030 and China will be a major contributor towards this global goal. Currently, two approved therapeutic strategies are available including pegylated interferon (IFN) or nucleos (t) ide analogues (NA), which could suppress HBV replication and slow disease progression. Here, investigators hope to launch a cohort study to reveal the clinical features relating to therapeutic efficacy of antiviral therapy and the prognosis of patients with differential therapeutic strategies.
In order to tackle the unmet needs in chronic HBV infection, a consortium of clinical partners has gathered to establish a registry for patients with hepatitis B mono- and co-infections. The partners will build up a European-wide registry to be able to stratify patients for upcoming clinical trials. Extensive analyses of virus and host-specific parameters are to be carried out from these patients. The knowledge gained thereby should contribute to a better understanding of the HBV control and enable patient stratification with regard to immunomodulatory therapies. Furthermore, hepatitis B patients are to be identified who are willing to participate in future studies to investigate immunotherapies to cure HBV infections (e.g. therapeutic vaccines).
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major public health problem facing the world, with more than 2 billion people infected with HBV. There are more than 400 million chronic carriers, and 75% of carriers live in the Asia Pacific region. The mother-to-child transmission route of hepatitis B virus is recognized as one of the most important routes of transmission, and recent studies have found that fathers who are carriers of HBV may also be one of the risk factors for HBV infection in children, but as far as the investigators know. Therefore, as a high-population area in China, the purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of HBV infection in this population.
To investigate the efficacy of using antiviral therapy in third trimester of pregnancy to reduce mother-to-infant HBV transmission, and to access the safety of such treatment for mothers and infants.
