The eroprevalance Of Hepatitis A in Adıyaman

Öz

Objective: Hepatitis A is an acute, mostly self-limiting disease of the liver caused by hepatitis A virus (HAV). The goal of the study was to seek the seroprevalence of hepatitis A infection for different age groups in Adıyaman province.

Materials and Methods: In this study, the seropositivity of hepatitis A infection of people who had admitted to Adiyaman University training and research hospital and primary care provider from central regions of Adıyaman city from March 2012 to April 2013 were evaluated, retrospectively.  Existence of anti- HAV IgG antibodies were studied by macro ELISA devices belonging two different manufacturers (Abbott Laboratories and  Roche Diagnostics).

Results: One thousand seven hundred twenty male and 1844 female were included the study (a total of 3564 cases). Anti HAV IgG seropositivity was 77,5% (2761/3564). It was determined that the prevalance was increasing with age. This study found no difference in HAV antibody prevalence between men and women.(p>0,05)

Conclusion: Hepatitis A infection’s serological prevalence profiles vary geographically in the world. In the intermediate endemic areas like Turkey, the latency in the exposure to the virus has constitute  a vast number of susceptible adolescents and extremely increased the average age at infection. The severity of illness increases by age. Implement¬ing vaccination programs for HAV infection, as well as improved hygiene, sanitation, and drinking water quality and quantity are associated with decreased risk of HAV infection.
