Hepatitis B virus infection among Chinese residents in the United Kingdom
Objective: To determine prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) serological markers in Chinese residents in the United Kingdom. Method: Retrospective case-controlled study between January 1997 and June 2000 in two genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinics. Results: 117 Chinese and 234 non-Chinese controls...

Method: Retrospective case-controlled study between January 1997 and June 2000 in two genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinics. Results: 117 Chinese and 234 non-Chinese controls were studied. Baseline characteristics except marital status showed no difference. Overall prevalence of HBV serological markers was 35.8% in Chinese, controls 5.5% (p<0.001). Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive carrier rate was 12.8% in Chinese, controls 0.4% (p<0.001); 1.7% of Chinese patients were also hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) positive, none in controls. Natural immunity was acquired in 23.0% of Chinese, controls 5.1% (p<0.001). Prevalence of HBV serological markers in UK born Chinese was 6.7%, non-UK born Chinese 40.1% (p<0.011). Only 7.6% of Chinese had a history of previous HBV vaccination. Conclusions: Prevalence of HBV serological markers among Chinese patients attending two GUM clinics in London was high and only a minority of Chinese had immunisation against HBV. Although the prevalence of HBV markers in UK born Chinese was lower than non-UK born Chinese, they may be at continuous risk of HBV infection. Non-UK born Chinese patients attending GUM services in the United Kingdom should be targeted for screening and vaccination to reduce HBV transmission.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1368-4973</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1472-3263</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1136/sti.78.3.166</identifier><identifier>PMID: 12238645</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>London: BMJ Publishing Group Ltd</publisher><subject>Adolescent ; Adult ; Age ; Aged ; Analysis ; Biological and medical sciences ; Case-Control Studies ; Chi-Square Distribution ; China - ethnology ; Chinese ; Demographic aspects ; Female ; Health aspects ; Hepatitis ; Hepatitis B ; Hepatitis B - blood ; Hepatitis B - ethnology ; Hepatitis B - prevention & control ; Hepatitis B e Antigens - blood ; Hepatitis B Vaccines ; Human viral diseases ; Humans ; immunisation ; Infections ; Infectious diseases ; Male ; Medical sciences ; Mens health ; Middle Aged ; Original ; Population ; Prevalence ; Prevalence studies (Epidemiology) ; Retrospective Studies ; Risk Factors ; United Kingdom ; United Kingdom - epidemiology ; Vaccination - statistics & numerical data ; Viral diseases ; Viral hepatitis</subject><ispartof>Sexually transmitted infections, 2002-06, Vol.78 (3), p.166-168</ispartof><rights>Copyright 2002 Sexually Transmitted Infections</rights><rights>2002 INIST-CNRS</rights><rights>COPYRIGHT 2002 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.</rights><rights>Copyright: 2002 Copyright 2002 Sexually Transmitted Infections</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-b583t-1c65f1a79bb9108cd661c85437f0f828a227e8c310e4861d8348834895c0819c3</citedby></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1744482/pdf/$$EPDF$$P50$$Gpubmedcentral$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1744482/$$EHTML$$P50$$Gpubmedcentral$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>230,314,727,780,784,885,27923,27924,53790,53792</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttp://pascal-francis.inist.fr/vibad/index.php?action=getRecordDetail&idt=13721769$$DView record in Pascal Francis$$Hfree_for_read</backlink><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12238645$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Kawsar, M</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Goh, Bt</creatorcontrib><title>Hepatitis B virus infection among Chinese residents in the United Kingdom</title><title>Sexually transmitted infections</title><addtitle>Sex Transm Infect</addtitle><description>Objective: To determine prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) serological markers in Chinese residents in the United Kingdom.
