OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlations of hepatitis B virus markers and hepatitis B virus -DNA vectors in blood between women in perinatal period and cord blood, and to assess the risk of HBV infections status in pregnant women to intrauterine fetal infective.

METHODSWe selected 612 pregnant women who decided to delivery in hospital, in compliance with the principles of informed consent. According the difference of hepatitis virus serological markers existing in pregnant women, samples were divided into six groups. We used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect hepatitis virus serological markers, existing in serum of mother and cord blood. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was supplied to test HBV-DNA load levels in these two kinds of biological specimen.

RESULTSIn group A, hepatitis B virus "big 3 positives" or 1,3 positive 149 lying-in woman examples, two positive rates of HBV-DNA about pregnant women and cord blood are 99.33% and 32.21%; in group B, positive rates of HBV-DNA in two kinds of specimen are 20.00% and 3.08%; in group C and D, two positive rates are and the average contents of HBV-DNA, the results as mentioned in each group respectively are 65.52%, 12.07% and 13.56%, 1.69% respectively. Control group is group E, 86 lying-in woman examples and the detecting results orderly are 1.16%, 0. There was a significant difference in positive rate of HBV-DNA in cord blood between group A and group B subgroups (chi2 = 54.09, P < 0.01). There is significant positive correlation between HBV-DNA vectors existing in mother's serum and the positive rate of HBV-DNA in cord blood. Hepatitis B virus the mother blood " big 3 positives " is the umbilicus blood HBV-DNA 6345 times that carries quantity in average.

CONCLUSION(1) During the perinatal period, along with the HBV-DNA load levels arising of pregnant women, the risk of HBV infections status in pregnant women to intrauterine fetal infective increased. (2) Suggested to develop the compound pattern human hepatitis B immunoglobulin: Increase the composition of efficient price HBeAb-can be combinated HBeAg, HBsAb can be combinated HBsAg, strengthen the hinderance and break hepatitis B virus disseminate. (3) Our government should strengthen the propaganda of hepatitis B virus education. Establish and perfect to surround and produce the system of health protection.
