hbvdna means nothing in terms of hbv infection and clearance, it just says it is low replication and liver damage should be very low or none
on antivirals it means antivirals are doing their job
to know if infection is clearing you need hbsag quantity in iu/ml, not hbvdna
Can i be considered as inactive carrier as my HBEAG is negative ?
no hbeag means nothing and hbeag negative is even worst in terms of response to therapies.
to be inactive carrier you need hbsag<500iu/ml on genotype A-D and about 200-300 on genotype B-C
Hi Stef
Today i got my HBV DNA Quantitative report
Method : Quantitative Real Time PCR : HBV DNA
Result : Sample for HBV DNA is showing 14 iu/ml = 81 copies/ml
Exponential value - 81.E+01
log value - 1.91
can you please tell me what is the out come of this report.
14 iu/ ml ?
Exponential value - 8.1E+01 ?
Log Value ?
Can i be considered as inactive carrier as my HBEAG is negative ?
Do i have higher volume of virus or undectable value ?
should i need more test to understand further on my HBSAG+ / Liver damage status
My sgpt is 48 iu/l normal range 10 - 40 iu/l. I am worried that my SGPT is increased compared to normal range.
if my HBV DNA is low will their be any possibility of getting my HBSAG as negative by taking Alinia® (nitazoxanide) Tablets reguarly.
Please advise what are additional test i should take in order to get complete information about my infection status and posibility medicial treatments.
the second test is hbsag quantity in iu/ml
all the tests you have done are useless, the main tests are hbsag quant and firboscan, all the rest is secondary
US is totally useless it cannot see any liver damage, it can see only 2 things regarding hbv so it is extremely poor test:
it can see liver damage when it s too late and it can t be regressed...advanced cirrhosis
it can see cancer
there are many countries in the world, united states the first that just steal money making believe that US is necessary to see liver damage
to know where you are a fibroscan is needed (or biopsy if your country is not updated and doesn t have fibroscans)
Hi..
I got my LFT done in July'2011 & Sept 2011.
Every thing is normal in July except SGPT is 48 the normal range S.g.p.t upto 37 U/L
Sept'2011 LFT Results
sgpt 48 iu/l normal range 10 - 40 iu/l
Alkaline phosphatase 318iu/l normal range 108 - 306 iu/l
Also, i gave HBV DNA quantification & USG Abdomen scan.
DNA test result will be given in 10 days.
USG Abdomen results :
Liver : normal in size and contour. Parenchymal echotexture is increased. No IHBD. CBD is normal. Portal vein is normal.
Ultersound findinds are :
Fatty infiltration of liver, No focal lesion.
Please advise on my report status...is their any indication of viral replicaion and also, let me know if i need to check for any additional blood test/lab test.
Please provide your inputs on my post at the earliest.
