“…In Brazil, few studies have associated epidemiological variables with serological markers of HBV infection other than HBsAg. In Maranhão, the presence of anti-HBc was associated with the level of education in pregnant women in general [ 40 ], but no association was observed in other Brazilian states, including Goiás [ 34 ] and Espírito Santo [ 41 ]. This finding indicates the need for better monitoring of these markers for the implementation of public policies to combat HBV.…”

BackgroundPrenatal tests are important for prevention of vertical transmission of various infectious agents. The objective of this study was to describe the prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), rubella virus and vaccination coverage against HBV in pregnant adolescents who received care in the city of Belém, Pará, Brazil.MethodsA cross-sectional study was performed with 324 pregnant adolescents from 2009 to 2010. After the interview and blood collection, the patients were screened for antibodies and/or antigens against HIV-1/2, HTLV-1/2, CMV, rubella virus and HBV. The epidemiological variables were demonstrated using descriptive statistics with the G, χ2 and Fisher exact tests.ResultsThe mean age of the participants was 15.8 years, and the majority (65.4%) had less than 6 years of education. The mean age at first intercourse was 14.4 years, and 60.8% reported having a partner aged between 12 and 14 years. The prevalence of HIV infection was 0.3%, and of HTLV infection was 0.6%. Regarding HBV, 0.6% of the participants had acute infection, 9.9% had a previous infection, 16.7% had vaccine immunity and 72.8% were susceptible to infection. The presence of anti-HBs was greater in adolescent between 12 and 14 years old (28.8%) while the anti-HBc was greater in adolescent between 15 and 18 years old (10.3%). Most of the adolescents presented the IgG antibody to CMV (96.3%) and rubella (92.3%). None of the participants had acute rubella infection, and 2.2% had anti-CMV IgM.ConclusionsThis study is the first report of the seroepidemiology of infectious agents in a population of pregnant adolescents in the Northern region of Brazil. Most of the adolescents had low levels of education, were susceptible to HBV infection and had IgG antibodies to CMV and rubella virus. The prevalence of HBV, HIV and HTLV was similar to that reported in other regions of Brazil. However, the presence of these agents in this younger population reinforces the need for good prenatal follow-up and more comprehensive vaccination campaigns against HBV due to the large number of women susceptible to the virus.

“…11,22 É provável que a maior detecção no sexo feminino com idade entre 15 e 39 anos esteja relacionada a fatores de risco, como a multiplicidade de parceiros sexuais, relações sem preservativos e práticas da comercialização da atividade sexual. 23 Situações de desigualdade nas relações de gênero, em que prevalece a dominação masculina, principalmente nas parceiras fixas, podem estar associadas à maior vulnerabilidade das mulheres ao VHB nessa faixa etária, dada sua dificuldade, na negociação do uso do preservativo com os homens. 24 Para o sexo masculino na faixa dos 40 aos 69 anos, é possível que os achados deste estudo estejam relacionados a fatores que incluem atividades sexuais extraconjugais sem o uso de preservativos.…”

RESUMO: A Hepatite B é uma infecção viral que se destaca pela alta morbimortalidade, cronicidade, cirrose e carcinoma hepatocelular. Esta pesquisa objetivou avaliar a situação sorológica e vacinal para Hepatite B em puérperas internadas em uma maternidade pública de Teresina. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, realizado por meio de entrevistas com 377 puérperas, entre janeiro a fevereiro de 2011. A baixa cobertura vacinal caracterizou-se pelas oportunidades perdidas de vacinação, pois 77,5% delas não receberam nenhuma dose da vacina, embora a maioria tenha realizado o pré-natal. Apenas 41,9% realizaram sorologia. Em relação às informações sobre a vacina, observa-se que 77,3% das puérperas foram informadas sobre as vacinas que deveriam receber durante o pré-natal. Dentre as fontes informantes, o enfermeiro foi o mais citado, com 55%, reforçando o seu papel de destaque como um educador em saúde na atenção pré-natal. Evidenciou-se a ocorrência de baixas coberturas sorológica e vacinal, denunciando a ineficiência do acompanhamento pré-natal. Palavra-Chave: Cobertura vacinal; sorologia; hepatite B; puerpério.ABSTRACT: Hepatitis B is a viral infection notable for high rates of morbidity, chronicity, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This transversal study to evaluate serologic and Hepatitis B vaccination status in women admitted to a public maternity hospital in Teresina was conducted in January and February, 2011, through interviews of a sample of 377 postpartum women. Poor vaccine coverage was characterized by missed opportunities for immunization: 77.5% of the sample received no dose of the vaccine, even though most had received antenatal care. Hepatitis serology testing had been performed on only 41.9%. However, 77.1% were informed of what vaccines they should receive during the antenatal period. Nurses were the information source most mentioned (by 55%), underlining their key role as health educators in antenatal care. The study found low vaccine and serological coverage, evidencing the inefficiency of antenatal monitoring. Keywords: Immunization coverage; serology, hepatitis B; puerperium.
