Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) GENOTYPEs in Isparta, Southwest of Turkey, as well as the clinical features and TRANSMISSION ROUTE for patients with HBV infections. Methods: Patients (n = 135) with HBV infection were included in the study. Epidemiological and clinical data were obtained. HBV GENOTYPEs were determined with a preS2 epitope ELISA kit. Results: Although the HBV TRANSMISSION ROUTE remained unidentified in 51.1% of the patients, blood contact was determined as the most common probable TRANSMISSION ROUTE (38.5%). One hundred twenty-four (91.8%) of 135 samples, could be GENOTYPEd. One hundred fifteen (85.1%) were GENOTYPEd as type D/E, six (4.4%) were GENOTYPEd as type A, two (1.4%) were GENOTYPEd as type C, and one (0.7%) were GENOTYPEd as type F. Conclusion: GENOTYPE D/E is determined as the predominant HBV GENOTYPE circulating in Isparta, Southwest of Turkey. No relationship between GENOTYPEs and disease severity and TRANSMISSION ROUTE has been detected.
