HI MY FRIENDS


how can you distinguish((( laboratory))) between chronic hepatitis HBV and HBV carrier


chronic hepatitis B is of two types
chronic active i.e HBeAg +ve
chronic inactive i.e HBeAg -ve


In HBeAg positive chronic hepatitis B, HBeAg and high titres of HBV DNA are present in serum, and anti-HBe is undetect-able.

In HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B anti-HBe is present and HBeAg is absent in serum; HBV DNA is present in serum although large fluctuations in levels can occur.


In the inactive HBsAg carrier state, HBsAg and anti-Hbe are present in serum, but serum aminotransferase levels are persistently normal . Such patients have either low or undetectable levels of HBV-DNA in serum.
So its easy to differentiate HBV carrier 4om chronic active Hep B but difficult in case of chronic inactive Hep B

The differentiation of inactive HBV carrier state from HBeAg negative chronic hepatitis B requires serial testing of serum aminotransferase and HBV-DNA levels


alternatively we can always differentiate carrier state 4om chronic hep b with the help of liver biopsy in which carriers will show no change while chronic hepatitis liver will show characteristic changes
