Evaluation of 'anti-HBc only' serological pattern detected in patients admitted to Ege University Hospital

Abstract

Aim: The aim of the study is to determine the prevalance of serological pattern 'anti-HBc alone' in samples of patients sent to Ege University Virology Laboratory for the determination of hepatitis B markers and to determine the HBV DNA presence and co-infections in these samples. Materials and Methods: The results of 22333 serum samples tested between January 2014-December 2014 were examined retrospectively. HBV, HCV, HIV markers were tested with chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) (Architect i2000sr, Abbott, USA) and HBV DNA with Real time PCR (Abbott m2000rt, Abbott, U.S.A.). Results: Eight hundred and thirty-seven (%3.74) of 22333 samples were determined as having the serological pattern 'anti-HBc alone'. Forty five of 808 samples tested for anti HCV were reactive and three samples out of 635 tested for anti HIV had reactive results. One hundred and eighty samples were tested for HBV DNA and 16 (%8.8) were found to be positive. Conclusion: 'Anti-HBc alone' serological profile is a common laboratory finding that is observed during routine serological assays in the clinical laboratory and %3.74 of 22333 samples were determined as having this serological pattern in our laboratory. This profile may reflect different situations from false reactivity to chronic HBV infections. Further testing and careful follow up is necessary in these patients.
