Objectives: This article aimed to explore the relationship between hepatitis B virus infection (HBV) and intrahepatic cholestasis in pregnancy (ICP).
Material And Methods: We conducted a retrospective study at the Beijing Youan Hospital in China between January 1, 2010 and November 31, 2016. In total, 217 pregnancies were identified and retrospectively studied. Characteristics, pregnant outcomes and the rate of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HBV were compared between groups.
Results: Elevate of total bile acid occurred mainly during the second and third trimester among HBV with ICP (HBV + ICP) patients. The rate of preterm birth occurred more frequently in HBV + ICP patients than both ICP and HBV patients (p < 0.05). Furthermore HBV + ICP patients had a higher percentage of cesarean section, postpartum hemorrhage Apgar < 7 at 1/5 min, AFIII and LBWI rate than HBV patients (p > 0.05) but did not have an increased incidence of fetal loss or birth defect when compared with that in HBV and ICP patients (p > 0.05).
Conclusions: HBV + ICP patients have adverse pregnant outcomes and as a high occurrence in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy monitoring should be enhanced at this time.

Background: This study aims to investigate the relationship between hepatitis B virus (HBV) RNA level and pregnancy outcomes among hepatitis B carriers.
Methods: This study collected pregnant women who attended the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University (Guizhou, China) from June 2020 to June 2023. The levels of HBV DNA, HBV RNA, and HBeAg status in HBV carriers were detected.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), a liver disorder common during pregnancy, and explores its genetic causes specifically in East Asian populations compared to Europeans.
- Researchers conducted a large genome-wide association study on serum bile acids and ICP in over 98,000 Chinese pregnancies, identifying new genetic loci linked to the disorder and its risk.
- The findings suggest a unique genetic link to ICP in East Asians tied to historical hepatitis B epidemics, which could lead to improved detection and treatment strategies for the condition.
Recombinase Polymerase Amplification and Target-Triggered CRISPR/Cas12a Assay for Sensitive and Selective Hepatitis B Virus DNA Analysis Based on Lanthanide Tagging and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometric Detection.

Herein, we report a target-triggered CRISPR/Cas12a assay by coupling lanthanide tagging and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for highly sensitive elemental detection. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA was chosen as a model analyte, and recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) was used for target amplification. The double-stranded RPA amplicons containing a 5' TTTG PAM sequence can be recognized by Cas12a through a specific CRISPR RNA, activating the cleavage activity of CRISPR/Cas12a and nonspecific cleavage of terbium (Tb)-ssDNA modified on magnetic beads (MBs).

Processing conditions applied during food production could affect food component contents and bioaccessibility. Here, possible changes in Hg and Se total and species contents and bioaccessibility have been tracked in each stage of the production chain of processed fish-derived products. Therefore, Se:Hg molar ratio and Selenium Health Benefit Value (HBV) were calculated for final products and raw materials, resulting favorable in all cases, suggesting the safety of surimi-based products regarding mercury.

Objective: To explore the relationships between gestational hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, antiviral therapy, and pregnancy outcomes.
Methods: We retrospectively selected hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive pregnant women hospitalized for delivery at Fujian Medical University Affiliated Hospital from October 1, 2016 to October 1, 2020. The control group included randomly selected healthy pregnant women hospitalized for delivery during the same time.
