Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) markers between umbilical cord blood and maternal serum.Methods A total of 340 HBsAg positive mothers who delivered at the Third People' s Hospital of Changzhou during August 2009 and November 2010 were included in the study.HBV markers in the maternal serum before childbirth and umbilical cord blood after birth were quantitatively detected.The neonates received 3 doses of hepatitis B vaccine and 2 doses of hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG),and followed up for 12 months.Measurement data were expressed as median (M),and Kruskal-Wallis test and Spearman correlation analysis were performed.Results There were 175HBeAg-positive and 165 HBeAg-negative mothers,and a total of 341 infants were delivered.The positive rates of HBsAg,anti-HBs,HBeAg,anti-HBe and anti-HBc in maternal serum were 100.00％,0.0％,51.47％,38.82％ and 99.41％,respectively; while those in umbilical cord bloods were 14.66％,0.59％,26.69％,39.88％ and 95.31％,respectively.HBsAg concentration in maternal serum of HBsAg-positive umbilical cord blood group was higher than that of HBsAg-negative umbilical cord blood group (419.40∶ 387.95,x2 =4.592,P ＜ 0.05) ; while HBsAg concentration in umbilical cord blood of HBeAg-positive maternal serum was higher than that of the HBeAg-negative maternal serum group (0.04 ∶ 0.01,x2 =5.674,P ＜ 0.05).Anti-HBe and anti-HBc in umbilical cord blood were positively correlated with those in maternal serum (r =0.838,0.764,P ＜ 0.01).Seven out of 62 (11.29％) infants were infected with HBV in HBeAg-positive maternal serum group; while no infant infected in HBeAg-negative matemal serum group.Conclusion The higher maternal serum HBsAg concentration,the greater the risk of perinatal transmission,and infants born by HBeAg-positive mothers are of high risk of HBV infection.
