Article Synopsis
- Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections in infants are primarily transmitted from mother to child during birth, and current tests cannot reliably determine if this transmission has occurred.
- A study conducted on 5999 pregnant women in Shenzhen City from 2011 to 2016 found that a significant percentage of their newborns had various HBV markers in their blood, which correlated with the mother's HBV status.
- The research concluded that a high HBV DNA titer in umbilical cord blood and the presence of HBeAg in mothers are strong indicators of potential HBV mother-to-child transmission.
