Long-term immunogenicity and safety of the hepatitis B vaccine HepB-CpG (HEPLISAV-B) compared with HepB-Eng (Engerix-B) in adults with chronic kidney disease
CONCLUSIONS: Due to the higher antibody levels induced by HepB-CpG in participants with CKD, seroprotection against HBV may be expected to persist longer than that induced by HepB-Eng.CLINICALTRIALS: gov: NCT01282762.PMID:37085451 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.04.028

High Prevalence of Occult Hepatitis B Virus Infection among Iranian Hemodialysis Patients
Am J Trop Med Hyg. 2023 Mar 13:tpmd220345. doi: 10.4269/ajtmh.22-0345. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTConsidering the potential risks associated with occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, this study was designed to investigate the magnitude and genotypic pattern of occult HBV infection among hemodialysis patients. All patients on regular hemodialysis attending the dialysis centers located in southern Iran and 277 nonhemodialysis controls were invited to participate in this study. Serum samples were tested for detection of hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) by competitive enzyme imm...
