Abstract:
To analyze the test results of five serum markers of hepatitis B virus (HBV) among university freshmen from 2007 to 2012.Among a total of 10 827 freshmen,there were 5 021 freshmen from 2007 to 2009 with all five serum markers.The overall ratio of HBsAg positive was 4.5%,4.8%,4.8% and 4.0% for each year.And it had no statistically significant difference.The overall ratio of single-HBsAb positive was 34.8%,37.4%,29.0% and 37.9% for each year and the figure of 2008 was lower than those of 2007 and 2009 (P < 0.01).The overall ratio of five markers all negative were 58.3%,55.4%,63.9% and 55.8% for each year and the figure of 2008 was higher than those of 2007 and 2009 (P < 0.01).And 34.5% of HBsAg positive freshmen were HBsAg(+),HBeAg (+),HBcAb (+) and 44.2% HBsAg(+),HBeAb(+),HBcAb(+).The prevalence ratio of HBsAg for males was higher than that for females (5.1% vs.3.2%,P <0.01).Among 5 806 freshmen tested during 2010-2012,522(9.0%) had a serum level of alanine transaminase (ALT) > 40 U/L,including HBsAg positive (n =12),single anti-HBs positive (n =213) and five negatives (n =288).Approximate 50% university freshmen have no anti-HBs indicating a low level of immunity.And the students should acquire the knowledge of hepatitis B,improve the ratio of vaccination,strengthen the monitoring and prevent its spread through concerted measures.
