Abstract
Background: Vaccination is effective to prevent hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, there is still a risk of infection after vaccination. In clinical work, we found that newborns were positive for HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) after vaccination.
Objectives: To determine the effect of hepatitis B vaccination on the detection of HBsAg trend in newborns.
Methods: We collected data at birth, history of vaccination for hepatitis B, quantitative HBsAg results, and other information about newborns born in our hospital from July 2017 to July 2020. Serum samples from healthy neonates were randomly selected to be supplemented with recombinant hepatitis B vaccine on a concentration gradient, and HBsAg was measured quantitatively.
Results: Data from 1417 neonates were included in the study; 306 (21.6%) were HBsAg positive within 8 d after vaccination, with levels ranging from 0.104 IU/mL to 0.339 IU/mL. The proportion of neonates with HBsAg-positive serum was significantly correlated with the level of hepatitis B surface antibodies (anti-HBs) in the serum of their mothers (P < 0.01). Experiments in vitro showed that the proportion of neonates with HBsAg-positive serum was correlated with the dose of the hepatitis B vaccine, and when the concentration of the hepatitis B vaccine reached 5 ng/mL and 10 ng/mL, the serum HBsAg levels showed a significant negative correlation with the original concentration of serum anti-HBs.
Conclusions: Hepatitis B vaccination can affect the level of HBsAg detected in neonatal serum, and the effect could be mitigated by delaying the measurement. Moreover, maternal anti-HBs offset the effects of neonatal vaccination on HBsAg serum levels.
期刊介绍：
Asian Biomedicine: Research, Reviews and News (ISSN 1905-7415 print; 1875-855X online) is published in one volume (of 6 bimonthly issues) a year since 2007. [...]Asian Biomedicine is an international, general medical and biomedical journal that aims to publish original peer-reviewed contributions dealing with various topics in the biomedical and health sciences from basic experimental to clinical aspects. The work and authorship must be strongly affiliated with a country in Asia, or with specific importance and relevance to the Asian region. The Journal will publish reviews, original experimental studies, observational studies, technical and clinical (case) reports, practice guidelines, historical perspectives of Asian biomedicine, clinicopathological conferences, and commentaries
Asian biomedicine is intended for a broad and international audience, primarily those in the health professions including researchers, physician practitioners, basic medical scientists, dentists, educators, administrators, those in the assistive professions, such as nurses, and the many types of allied health professionals in research and health care delivery systems including those in training.
