The functional cure of hepatitis B means that patients have good clinical outcomes, which is the ideal endpoint of hepatitis B antiviral treatment. Whether chronic hepatitis B patients can achieve functional cure is related to the nature of the virus itself, such as virus species, virus replication and expression of related proteins, on the other hand, it is also related to the host body's immunity, including innate immunity and specific immunity. Immune factors play a vital role in the functional cure of hepatitis B. Antiviral drugs, including interferon, often play an antiviral role by regulating immunity. This paper reviews the relationship between hepatitis B and functional cure from the perspective of immunity, in order to provide the basis for the clinical pursuit of functional cure, hoping to provide guidance for clinical practice.

Objective:To study the predictors of postpartum hepatitis in pregnant women with chronic HBV infection.Methods:In this retrospective study, liver function and hepatitis B virology tests of pregnant women with chronic HBV infection at delivery and within 48 weeks were collected from the clinical medical system after the enrollment of eligible patients. Statistical analysis was performed on the obtained data.Results:A total of 533 pregnant women meeting the criteria were enrolled, and the average age of all patients was 29.5±3.7. A total of 408 pregnant women took antiviral drugs during pregnancy for prevention of mother-to-child transmission; 231 patients developed hepatitis within 1 year after delivery. There were significant differences in alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), HBV DNA during delivery, hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) during delivery and baseline HBeAg between patients with and without hepatitis. Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis showed that HBeAg ( OR=0.19, 0.074-0.473; P<0.001), ALT ( OR=1.05, 1.021-1.071; P<0.001), albumin ( OR=0.91, 0.833-0.995; P=0.038), platelet ( OR=0.995, 0.992-0.999; P=0.01), neutrophils ( OR=0.98, 0.973-0.995; P=0.004) had significant difference. Conclusions:Baseline HBeAg and ALT are powerful predictors of postpartum hepatitis in pregnant women with chronic HBV infection.

Objective:To investigate the distribution characteristics and related factors of HBsAb in infants born to women with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.Methods:A total of 605 infants born to women with chronic HBV infection who met the requirements for inclusion were selected as the subjects. Information about the mother′s previous HBV infection, biochemical indicators during pregnancy, pregnancy complications, information about delivery, and hepatitis B test result after birth were collected. HBsAg and HBsAb at the age of 1 year were determined, and HBsAg and HBsAb at the age of 7 months were retrospectively collected. The factors influencing HBsAb in infants were analyzed by ordered logistic regression.Results:In 605 infants, the infection rate was about 1%. Among them, 6 infants were positive for HBsAg and HBV DNA at 7 months and 1 year of age. Uninfected infants were divided into groups according to HBsAb titers. The result showed that there were significant differences in prothrombin activity (PTA) ( χ2=11.17, P=0.01), positive rate of HBeAg ( χ2=7.87, P=0.049) and HBsAg positive rate at birth ( χ2=10.52, P=0.02) among different groups. Multivariate ordered Logistic regression analysis showed that HBsAg negative at birth was an independent protective factor for HBsAb at 7 months of age ( OR=1.564, 95% CI 1.092-2.239, P=0.015). Logistic regression analysis of HBsAb at 1 year of age showed maternal gestational diabetes mellitus ( OR=1.578, 95% CI 1.126-2.210, P=0.008), infant enhanced immunization ( OR=81.207, 95% CI 31.202-211.352, P < 0.001) and antibody level at 7 months of age ( OR=42.123, 95% CI 22.824-77.739, P < 0.001) were independently associated with HBsAb at 1 year of age. Conclusions:HBsAg negative in venous blood at birth was an independent protective factor for HBsAb at 7 months of age, and enhanced immunization was an independent protective factor for HBsAb at 1 year of age.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features of postpartum hepatitis flares in pregnant women with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted. Patients who met the enrollment criteria were included. Liver function and HBV virology tests were collected from pregnant women with chronic HBV infection at delivery, 6, 24, 36, and 48 weeks after delivery through the hospital information and test system. Additionally, antiviral therapy types and drug withdrawal times were collected. Statistical analysis was performed on all the resulting data.Results:A total of 533 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria were included, with all patients aged (29.5±3.7) years old. A total of 408 cases received antiviral drugs during pregnancy to interrupt mother-to-child transmission. There was no significant difference in the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT, z ?=?-1.981, P ?=?0.048), aspartate aminotransferase (AST, z ?=?-3.956, P ?0.001), HBV load ( z ?=?-15.292, P ?0.001), and HBeAg ( z ?=?-4.77, P ?0.001) at delivery in patients who received medication and those who did not. All patients ALT, AST, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and albumin showed an upward trend within six weeks after delivery. A total of 231 cases developed hepatitis within 48 weeks after delivery. Among them, 173 cases first showed ALT abnormalities within six weeks postpartum. Conclusion:Hepatitis flare incidence peaked six weeks after delivery or six weeks after drug withdrawal in pregnant women with chronic HBV infection.
