Abstract

A total of 28 hemodialysis patients and 23 healthy individuals working in close association with the patients or their blood samples were found to possess either HBAg (22) or anti-HBAg (29). HL-A typing revealed the lack of HL-AB in the group with anti-HBAg, suggesting that the immune response to HBAg may be negatively associated with HL-AB.
