目的:了解无偿献血人群乙型肝炎病毒(hepatitis B virus,HBV)感染情况,评估TMA技术应用于献血者HBV-DNA筛查的效果及其必要性。方法:采用平行检测ELISA/NAT模式,对2016年3月-2018年2月169160人(次)献血者及部分归队献血者进行常规血清学...目的:了解无偿献血人群乙型肝炎病毒(hepatitis B virus,HBV)感染情况,评估TMA技术应用于献血者HBV-DNA筛查的效果及其必要性。方法:采用平行检测ELISA/NAT模式,对2016年3月-2018年2月169160人(次)献血者及部分归队献血者进行常规血清学和NAT检测,对NAT筛查阳性标本行核酸鉴别试验;对单边试剂HBsAg+、HBV-DNA-献血者进行中和确证试验。结果:169160人(次)献血者中,双边试剂HBsAg检测阳性的为803例,占0.476%,单边试剂检测阳性的为243例,占0.144%。对40名HBV-DNA-、单边试剂检测HBsAg+标本经中和确证试验确证,仅有4名为阳性,确证阳性率为10%。检出1003例HBV-DNA+标本,HBsAg和HBV-DNA均为阳性的739例,2者一致率为73.7%。3种试剂阳性检出率比较有统计学差异(P<0.05);Murex试剂和新创试剂2种试剂检出阳性率有统计学差异(P<0.125)。2016年3月-2017年2月和2017年3月-2018年2月期间HBsAg-/HBV-DNA+检出率比较,没有统计学差异(P>0.05)。60名HBsAg-/HBV-DNA+归队献血者中有1名发生HBsAg阳转,该名献血者为HBV窗口期感染;其余59名献血者HBsAg阴性;HBVDNA检测显示,28名献血者HBV-DNA-,31名献血者HBV-DNA+,1名结果为不确定。结论:结合HBsAg检测,常规应用TMA技术检测HBV-DNA能缩短HBV感染的检测窗口期,检出HBV隐匿性感染,避免HBV漏检,从而有效地降低输血后传播乙型肝炎潜在风险。展开更多
