Prevalence of hepatitis B virus infection among persons with diagnosed diabetes mellitus in the United States, 1999–2010*

Abstract: The prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection among persons with diabetes has not been assessed among the US population, despite increasing reports of HBV transmission in institutional care settings. Using national survey data, we found a 60% higher prevalence of HBV infection among persons with (vs without) diagnosed diabetes.

“…20,21 It was seen that the prevalence of HBV infection was higher among persons with diabetes than without diabetes. 8 In different studies HBV sero-positivity was found 2-4% but in our study it was much higher. 22,23 The frequency of anti-HCV sero-positivity was lower in our study than two other studies.…”

“…7 Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is also significantly higher in diabetic population. 8,9 If inadequately addressed, the spectrum of NAFLD can pass through simple hepatic steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) to cirrhosis to hepatocellular carcinoma and death. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16] In this study, we have tried to clinically evaluate adult newly detected impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and diabetic patients with asymptomatic elevated ALT and to find out the aetiology for raised ALT.…”

“…3 Particularly, hepatitis B infections require attention: hepatitis B prevalence and hepatitis B related hospital admissions were shown to be higher in diabetic patients. [8][9][10] American Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommended to vaccinate all diabetic patients aged 19-60 years against hepatitis B as soon as they are diagnosed with diabetes and to vaccinate those above 60 years after risk assessment in the 2011 update 11 . Standard dose vaccination should be carried out at months 0, 1 and 6.…”

“…Recent evidence show that hepatitis B infection occurs more frequently among individuals with type 2 diabetes than the general population [1][2][3]. The odds for developing acute hepatitis B for individuals with diabetes is said to be as much as twice that for non-diabetics.…”
