Australia antigen and liver diseases. Report on personal cases and review of the literature
Quad Sclavo Diagn.
1975 Dec.
Abstract
The AA. relate the results of HBsAg and homologous antibody research by count-electrophoresis obtained in 274 patients with several chronic and acute liver-diseases. Moreover, the most important data of literature are discussed trying to relate the different results of the various AA. to the different sensitivity of the detection techniques and to the difficulties of classifying some disease (chronic hepatitis) and also to the factors related to the geographic distribution of Australia antigen. On the basis of this discussion the AA. make some general consideration on the meaning of HBsAg in the liver disease especially in the chronic diseases and in the primary liver cell carcinoma.
