Abstract:
Objective To compare the influence of different feeding mode on the immunoprophylaxis efficacy of the babies born to hepatitis B (HB) carrier mothers. Methods The babies born to HB carrier mothers received HB vaccine alone routinely or HB immunoglobulin (HBIG) plus HB vaccine immunoprophylaxis were followed up. Among infants with HB vaccine alone, 21 were breastfed and 40 bottle-fed, among those with HBIG and HB vaccine, 33 were breastfed and 135 bottle-fed. Results Among babies receiving HB vaccine alone, the positive rates of anti-HBs at 1,3,6,12 month of age are 4.8%, 42.9%, 57.9%, 80.9% in breastfed group, and 12.2%, 26.3%, 60.5%, 73.2% in bottle-fed group. Among those with HBIG and HB vaccine, the positive rates of anti-HBs at 1, 4, 7, 12 month of age are 72.7%,75.8%,77.4%,90.9% in breastfed group, and 77.0%, 72.9%,76.2%,90.4% in bottle-fed group. With HB vaccine alone, 1 infant in breastfed group and 3 in bottle-fed group, and with HBIG and HB vaccine, 0 in breastfed group and 4 in bottle-fed group were chronically infected at 1-year of age. There are no significant differences of the incidence of anti-HBs and immunoprophylaxis failure between breastfed and bottle-fed babies. Conclusion Breastfeeding doesn't pose a negative influence on the response of anti-HBs and the failure rates of the HB immunoprophylaxis in the infants born to HB carrier mothers
