Objective: To evaluate the immuno-effect and related influencing factors on 10 µg and 20 µg Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell hepatitis B vaccine, using the randomized double-blind controlled trials in adult population.

Methods: A total of 642 adults aged 18 - 45 years old, non-vaccinated against hepatitis B, and negative on five blood indicators for hepatitis B, were selected as the study objects from four districts in Beijing. The study objects were randomly divided into two groups, and then accepted 10 µg and 20 µg recombinant CHO hepatitis B vaccination by 0 - 1 - 6 month schedule. Influencing factors were investigated by means of questionnaire. Blood samples were collected one month after the third dose of vaccination. Anti-HBs level was detected by Abott chemiluminescence detection method. For the anti-HBs negative person, fluorescent quantitative PCR method was used to find out if the person had been infected with HBV. Logistic regression analysis was used to find out the influencing factors of anti-HBs seroconversion on every studied subject.

Results: The anti-HBs seroconversion rates on 10 µg and 20 µg dose groups were 88.8% (95%CI: 85.4% - 92.2%) and 95.3% (95%CI: 93.0% - 97.6%) respectively. Taking the anti-HBs level < 100 mIU/ml as the low/non-response standard, the low response and non-response rates were 34.3% and 17.4% respectively. The geometric mean titers (GMT) of anti-HBs were 173.42 mIU/ml for the 10 µg dose group and 588.51 mIU/ml for the 20 µg dose group. Data from the Multivariate analysis showed that:diabetes, spouses infected with hepatitis B virus and old age were unfavorable factors for anti-HBs Seroconversion. 20 µg dose of the vaccine was conducive to seroconversion.

Conclusion: 20 µg CHO hepatitis B vaccine seemed better than 10 µg CHO hepatitis B vaccine while many factors need to be taken into account for evaluation on hepatitis B vaccines.

Introduction: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which began in early 2020, and the outbreak of war in Ukraine in 2022 (a country bordering Poland on the east) have significantly impacted the mental health of young people in Poland, leading to increased rates of depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues. The rising number of individuals struggling to cope with daily stressors, as well as non-normative stressors, may indicate a decrease in the individual's potential, specifically in skills, attitudes, and competencies required to overcome difficulties that they encounter. It can be assumed that for young people, maintaining mental health under the influence of social stressors, such as the pandemic and the ongoing war in Ukraine, depends on the ability to adapt positively, which is the ability of young individuals to adjust to situational demands in a way that allows them to effectively manage those situations.
