Abstract

Background: While HEPATITIS E virus (HEV) mostly causes self-limited disease in general population, it is more severe in pregnant WOMEN.Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the seroprevalence of anti-HEV IgG among a population of pregnant WOMEN in West Azerbaijan of Iran.Patients and Methods: One hundred thirty six pregnant WOMEN referred to urban health centers of Urmia for pursuing PREGNANCY-related health services were enrolled in a descriptive, cross-sectional study. Anti-HEV IgG antibody was evaluated using ENZYME-LINKED IMMUNOSORBENT ASSAY (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA, Dia.Pro, Diagnostic Bioprobes).Results: Only five (3.6%) of 136 cases had positive results for anti-HEV IgG. There was no significant difference between age (P=0.88), and income level (P = 0.19) of the two seropositive and seronegative groups. All seropositive cases were from urban areas.Conclusions: The seroprevalence of anti-HEV IgG is low in the population of pregnant WOMEN in , similar to the rates reported from developed countries. Effective health services and provision of safe water supplies in Urmia may take role in this low prevalence rate.
