[Etiological and immunopathological markers in hepatitis B patients in the early convalescence stage during the development of chronic liver involvement].

Combinations of specific HB markers in a highly aggressive process are characterized in comparison with the lack of this aggressiveness. Among immunopathological markers, most informative were the levels of C3 component of complement and of immunocomplexes from the point of view of acute hepatitis B prognosis.
