Patient's question:
In school, I often hear classmates talking about who has hepatitis B, who is an HBsAg-positive carrier, and who is an HBeAg-positive carrier. Some students even need to be hospitalized for treatment due to severe conditions. Some people with hepatitis B live just like normal people. In fact, I don't really know what it means to be an HBsAg-positive or HBeAg-positive carrier. Are HBsAg-positive and HBeAg-positive carriers the same?Doctor's answer:
, which is a positive result in the detailed hepatitis B two pairs of half test, where the surface antigen (HBsAg), e antigen (HBeAg), and core antibody (HBcAb) are all positive. In the hepatitis B two pairs of half test report, it is displayed as HBsAg(), HBeAg(), anti-HBc(). Hepatitis B "small three positive" refers to the five indicators in the "two pairs of half" detailed test of hepatitis B, where the surface antigen (HBsAg), E antibody (HBeAb), and core antibody (HBcAb) tests are all positive. When patients face liver disease troubles, we should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If liver disease does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to promptly switch treatment plans.
