Objective To investigate the HBV infection status among population aged 15-65 years old in Pudong New Area, Shanghai and analyze the risk factors, and to provide a basis for HBV prevention and control. Methods Stratified two-stage cluster random sampling and other methods were used to select people aged 15 to 65 years old in Pudong New Area. Questionnaire surveys and laboratory tests were conducted to describe and compare the HBV infection status of people with different characteristics, and to analyze the risk factors of HBsAg positivity. Results A total of 1 093 people were investigated. The positive rate of HBsAg was 4.94%, the immunization rate of hepatitis B vaccine was 36.96% and the susceptibility rate of HBV was 43.64%. Among them, the HBsAg positive rate among middle-aged and elderly people was 5.10%~10.07%, and the HBsAg positive rate among women aged 15-49 years old was 2.27%. The risk factors of HBsAg positivity were age over 35 years old (35-44 years old/ 15-24 years, OR=4.25, 95% CI= 1.09-16.61; 45-65 years old /15-24 years old , OR=4.59, 95% CI=1.33-15.79), male (OR=2.33, 95% CI=1.27-4.28), family history of hepatitis (OR=5.50, 95% CI=2.10-14.36), intramuscular/intravenous injection (OR=3.22, 95% CI=1.51-6.90), traumatic beauty (OR=7.66, 95% CI=2.23-26.30) and shaving (OR=9.27, 95% CI=2.44-35.23). Conclusion The HBV infection rate among population aged 15-65 years old in Pudong New Area is low. The analysis of the risk factors suggests that effective precautions such as screening for HBV, inoculating hepatitis B vaccine, strengthening the management of public places and promoting safety syringes should be carried out for those who age 35 years old and above , have a family history of hepatitis , or have a history of intramuscular/ intravenous injection , and traumatic beauty or shaving.
