Objectives: There is limited information comparing the off-therapy relapse rates of patients discontinued tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) to those stopping entecavir or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF).
Methods: A total of 805 HBeAg-negative patients without cirrhosis receiving entecavir (n=406), TDF (n=260) or TAF (n=139) were enrolled. Propensity-score (PS) matching method was applied to eliminate the significant differences in clinical characteristics.

Unlabelled: Hepatitis B infection remains a significant global health concern, with hepatitis D co-infection observed in approximately 5% of the patients. Treatment options for hepatitis D are currently limited, with most therapies awaiting approval by the FDA. However, there is a lack of comprehensive data on the prevalence and clinical presentation of patients with hepatitis B and D coinfection, particularly in Pakistan.

Few cases of tenofovir resistance have been reported, and the appropriate treatment for such cases remains unclear. We aimed to share a case of a chronic hepatitis B mono-infected patient with potential tenofovir resistance who required combined lamivudine and tenofovir therapy to achieve adequate viral suppression. The patient's viral load (plasma) was monitored using the cobas® hepatitis B virus Test on the cobas® 6800 system.

Rationale: Mass vaccination, low cost of immunoglobulins, and new drugs led to the emergence of new, unusual patterns of hepatitis B serum markers. This study reported a rare case of hepatitis B with all 5 positive serum markers, including HBsAg, HBsAb, HBeAg, HBeAb, and HBcAb.
Patient Concerns: A 30-year-old female patient was admitted due to abnormal liver function.
