dc.description.abstract | Objective: We aimed to determine the seropositivity of hepatitis A infection in patients aged between 2-16 years who were admitted to the Department of Pediatrics of a university hospital in Eastern Anatolia. Material and Method: We studied 685 subjects, aged between 2-16 years, who were admitted to our Department between 2004 January and 2005 July. We used chi(2) test to evaluate serological results. Results: There is statistically significant increase of hepatitis A seropositivity in subjects attending school when compared with subjects before primary school (chi(2): 18,46, p< 0,00001). There is no significant difference of serological results between subjects of rural and urban origin (.2: 0,82, p= 0,365). Conclusions: Age of exposure to hepatitis A infection for children is increasing towards puberty. Hepatitis A vaccination should be recommended for susceptible children before attending primary school. | en_US |
