Question: I have a 2 years ago, such as revealed chronic hepatitis B but clear signs nebylo and no. and the results show that there is. for any analysis of its apparently can detect. And in general as srashen it and how it can be transmitted to othe

Answer: In the diagnosis of hepatitis B focuses on a survey of the patient and to identify risk factors for hepatitis B: evidence of intravenous drugs, cases of blood transfusion, surgical interventions and other manipulations associated with the violation of the integrity of skin or mucous membranes, casual sex, in close contact with carriers of hepatitis B virus or with patients with chronic liver disease in the period from 6 weeks to 6 months before the onset of the disease. For diagnosis of hepatitis B is very important results of tests for antigens. Hepatitis B virus contains 3 major antigen: surface NVsAg, internal NVcAg (which can be determined only in liver cells) and the associated NVeAg. All of these antigens in the course of infection antibodies. For their determination using enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA). In addition to tests for antibodies, an important role in the diagnosis of hepatitis B is an analysis of the DNA of hepatitis B virus, which is carried out by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Based on the results of blood tests for hepatitis B can determine the stage of the disease, chronic hepatitis B, and the availability of immunity to infection with hepatitis B. In the positive analysis of hepatitis B survey is conducted by the ELISA for the presence of a patient's blood markers of delta viral infection, that is Hepatitis D. After an incubation period of the first symptoms of hepatitis. Hepatitis can be acute, chronic or asymptomatic. The most dangerous form of chronic hepatitis, but chronic course may not be for all forms of hepatitis, but only for hepatitis B, C, D. From the standpoint of the possibility of infection is very dangerous and asymptomatic hepatitis. The degree of severity of viral hepatitis may also be different. Depending on the severity of liver injury in the development of hepatitis B are usually distinguished by a light, moderate or severe forms of hepatitis. In addition, fulminant occurs, that is a form of fulminant hepatitis, which is considered the most dangerous because of its rapid development to the formation of necrosis of the liver. It is fulminant hepatitis carries a high probability of death. The specific symptoms depend on the form of hepatitis, which affects the patient. Common symptoms may include only a general malaise, which, however, can not be called a characteristic feature, as it is characteristic of all viral infections. P
