Lack of supportive evidence for an autosomal recessive inheritance in chronic hepatitis B infections
Abstract
Two families with persistent hepatitis B infections are described. The patterns of HBsAG positivity in the parents and offspring are not compatible with the theory that susceptibility to chronic hepatitis B infection is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait.
