Abstract

A simple modification of the radioimmunoassay Ausria I 125 was employed for detecting anti-HBs using the inhibition of a constant amount of HBs Ag. Anti-HBs was demonstrated in up to 82% of follow-up patients recovering from viral hepatitis B and in 79% of hemophilia patients. The antibody was found in 3.4% of healthy blood donors and in 10% of family contacts of patients with acute HBs Ag-positive viral hepatitis. The frequency of anti-HBs in 44 patients with HBs Ag-negative chronic aggressive hepatitis or cryptogenic liver cirrhosis (23%) did not differ significantly as compared with the occurrence of anti-HBs in 58 patients with chronic rheumatoid arthritis (16%). These findings give further support to the suggestion that the hepatitis B virus does not contribute to the aetiology of HBs Ag-negative chronic active hepatitis.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
