Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of hepatitis B in Hainan from 2015 to 2021, and to predict the incidence trends among different populations, so as to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of hepatitis B based on the epidemiological characteristics and prediction. Methods Descriptive epidemiological characteristics of hepatitis B in Hainan were analyzed, and the incidence of hepatitis B among different populations in Hainan was studied based on the grey prediction model and polynomial model. The optimal model was selected by the principle of least absolute mean relative error, and future incidences were predicted. Results The reported incidence of hepatitis B in Hainan Province from 2015 to 2019 basically showed an annual upward trend, but a decreasing trend was observed in 2020. From 2017 to 2021, the reported incidence rates in the age groups of 0-<15 and 15-<30 showed a declining trend, while the incidence of the age groups of 60-<75 and ≥75 years old basically stabilized in Hainan. The annual average number and annual incidence of the population aged 30-<45 and 45-<60 were both higher. The male-to-female sex ratio of the annual average reported incidence of hepatitis B was approximately 2:1. Among the various occupations, the incidence was mainly among farmers, with an annual average proportion of hepatitis B of 43.06%. Regional disparities in the number of reported annual hepatitis B cases were found, with 5 cities decreasing year by year, 1 city increasing first and then decreasing, 2 cities being stable and other cities increasing year by year. The predicted incidence rates for 2022-2024 years were 127.43/100 000, 116.05/100 000, and 102.09/100 000, respectively. Conclusions In recent years, the incidence of hepatitis B among people under 30 years old in Hainan Province has shown a decreasing trend, indicating that policies such as hepatitis B vaccine included in the immunization program for children in Hainan have a good effect on the prevention and control of hepatitis B. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on strengthening the prevention and control of the high incidence rate in the age groups and gender. The existence of regional differences in the incidence of Hepatitis B suggests that comprehensive prevention and control measures should be continued to strengthen in areas where the incidence is increasing year by year, such as knowledge and health promotion of hepatitis B prevention and control, screening treatment, and vaccinatio.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and pathological characteristics of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with normal alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and not receiving antiviral therapy.Methods:This study retrospectively included CHB patients diagnosed by liver biopsy at the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2008 to December 2022. According to the HBV DNA and HBeAg status of "immune tolerance period and immune control period", these patients were divided into three groups: chronic HBV carrier group, inactive HBsAg carrier group and indeterminate group including the patients that did not meet the inclusion criteria of the above two groups. Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups. Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data and ordered categorical data between two groups. Chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. Results:A total of 284 CHB patients with normal ALT were enrolled. There were 64, 88 and 132 cases in the chronic HBV carrier group, inactive HBsAg carrier group and indeterminate group, respectively. Histopathological analysis revealed that there were 182 (64.08%) cases with pathological inflammation grade (G) and/or fibrosis stage (S)≥2, 155 (54.58%) with S≥2 and 120 (42.25%) with G≥2. The proportion of patients with G and/or S≥2 in the indeterminate group [70.45% (93/132)] was higher than that in the chronic HBV carrier group [48.44% (31/64)] and inactive HBsAg carrier group [65.91% (58/88)] (both P<0.05). Patient′s age and the ratio of patients with S≥2 in the chronic HBV carrier group [33 years old, 39.06% (25/64)] were smaller than those in the inactive HBsAg carrier group [39 years old, 56.82% (50/88)] and the indeterminate group [39 years old, 60.61% (80/132)] (all P<0.05). Patients in the inactive HBsAg carrier group (19 U/L) had lower ALT levels than those in the chronic HBV carrier group (26 U/L) and the indeterminate group (23 U/L) (both P<0.05). The proportion of patients with cytoplasmic/cytoplasmic nuclear-type HBcAg was higher in patients with G and/or S≥2 than in patients with G and S<2 [73.08% (57/78) vs 32.08% (17/53), P<0.05], and the proportion of patients with cytoplasmic/cytoplasmic nuclear-type HBcAg increased gradually with age. The proportion of patients with cytoplasmic/cytoplasmic nuclear-type HBcAg was higher in patients with G and/or S≥2 than in patients with G and S<2 in the chronic HBV carrier status and indeterminate groups [93.33% (28/30) vs 43.33%(13/30), P<0.05; 59.46% (22/37) vs 12.50% (2/16); both P<0.05]. There was a statistically significant difference in the incidence of significant liver injury between patients≤ 30 years old and >30 years old [52.7% (39/74) vs 68.1% (143/210), P<0.05]. Conclusions:Significant liver injury occurred in 64.08% (182/284) of CHB patients with normal ALT not receiving antiviral therapy, which required the attention of clinicians. Among CHB patients with normal ALT, the expression site of HBcAg in hepatocytes was related to the occurrence of significant liver injury and could be expected to serve as an important indicator for predicting the patient′s status and the necessity of antiviral treatment. CHB patients with positive HBV DNA who were older than 30 years required antiviral treatment, and CHB patients≤30 years with normal ALT and significant hepatic tissue damage also required antiviral treatment.
