Title

HEPATITIS E VIRUS SEROPREVALENCE AMONG BLOOD DONORS IN BUSHEHR, SOUTH OF IRAN

Pages

  0-0

Abstract

 Background: Although so far several studies have determined the HEPATITIS E VIRUS (HEV) prevalence in some parts of IRAN, no data exists regarding the HEV seroprevalence in Bushehr province as the southernmost point in IRAN yet.Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the seroprevalence of anti-HEV IgG among the BLOOD DONORS in Bushehr.Patients and Methods: A total of 628 blood donor samples were collected from September to October 2013, after obtaining informed written consents, and analyzed for the presence of anti-HEV IgG using commercial HEV ENZYME-LINKED IMMUNOSORBENT ASSAY (ELISA) kit. All the samples were tested by two ELISA kits and evaluated for liver function test.Results: Overall, 105 (16.7%) blood samples were positive for HEV-specific-IgG antibodies, while 523 (83.8%) were negative. The presence of anti-HEV IgG was not associated with gender; however, it was correlated with age. It was indicated that the anti-HEV prevalence increases by age and there was a significant difference between the age groups regarding HEV seropositivity.Conclusions: High HEV seroprevalence (16.7%) was observed among the BLOOD DONORS in Bushehr province. It appears that exposure to HEV increases with age; although, more people should be examined.
