Hepatitis B in Hemodialysis: Serologic Dynamics and Implications for Care
: HBV serologic profiles in this hemodialysis cohort reflected the interplay of immunosuppression, vaccination practices, and evolving epidemiologic trends. Subgroups exhibited variable vaccine responses, differing patterns of antibody waning, and a low incidence of new infections. These findings support tailored, population-specific HBV monitoring and prevention strategies in dialysis care.
