BACKGROUND: To study the correlativity between HBV-DNA and the markers of hepatitis B virus infection and different clinical types of hepatitis B. METHODS: The fluorescence quantitation (FQ) of HBV-DNA of 105 patients with hepatitis B was performed by PCR, and the correlativity between the fluorescence quantitation of HBV-DNA and the markers of hepatitis B virus and different clinical types of hepatitis B was analyzed. RESULTS: Ninety-seven percent of the patients were found HBsAg(+), HBeAg(+), HBcAb(+); 75% were HBsAg(+), HBeAb(+), HBcAb(+); 60% were HBsAg(+), HBcAb(+); 40% were HBsAg(+); in HBsAb(+), HBeAb(+), HBcAb(+) (or both HBsAb and HBcAb were positive) group the HBV DNA was undetectable. The analysis indicated that there was a significant difference among different groups (P less than 0.05).HBV-DNA was detected in 72.2% in acute hepatitis B group, in 75% of chronic hepatitis B group, and in 70% of cases of liver cirrhosis with hepatitis B group. The analysis indicated that there was no significant difference among the different clinical types of hepatitis (P greater than 0.05). CONCLUSION: The levels of viral replication were not correlated with different clinical types of hepatitis B; the concentration of HBV-DNA in serum was related to hepatitis B antigen.
