| Hepatitis B Serology Antigen and Antibody in WINDOW PERIOD | Antigen (-) HBsAg (-) HBeAg HBcAg - not measured (-) HBV DNA Antibody (-) Anti-HBs (+) Anti-HBc [IgM and IgG] (-) Anti-HBe |
| Viral Hepatitis without a vaccine | Hepatitis C and E |
| A characteristic feature of HEV infection is the high mortality rate among ___, approaching 20% | pregnant women |
| Hepatitis B Serology Antigen and Antibody in RECOVERY phase | Antigen (-) HBsAg (-) HBeAg HBcAg - not measured (-) HBV DNA Antibody (+) Anti-HBs (+) Anti-HBc [IgG] (-) Anti-HBe |
| HepB antigen that signals active replication | HBeAg (produced when HBcAg is produced) |
| HepB antigen that indicates active infection | HBsAg |
| HepB antibody that indicates low transmissibility | Anti-HBe |
| (-) HBsAG (-) Anti-HBc (-) Anti-HBs | Susceptible [normal] |
| (-) HBsAg (+) Anti-HBc (+) Anti-HBs | Immune due to natural infection |
| HepB antibody that indicates previous or ongoing infection | Anti-HBc |
| (-) HBsAg (-) Anti-HBc (+) Anti-HBs | Immune due to immunization |
| (+) HBsAg (+) Anti-HBc (+) IgM (-) Anti-HBs | Acute Infection |
| (+) HBsAg (+) Anti-HBc (-) IgM (-) Anti-HBs | Chronic Infection |
| Antigen (-) HBsAg (-) HBeAg HBcAg - not measured (-) HBV DNA Antibody (+) Anti-HBs (+) Anti-HBc [IgG] Anti-HBe - N/A | Recovery Phase of HepB |
| Hepatitis B Serology Antigen and Antibody in an IMMUNIZED subect | Antigen (-) HBsAg (-) HBeAg HBcAg - not measured (-) HBV DNA Antibody (+) Anti-HBs (-) Anti-HBc Anti-HBe - N/A |
| (+) Anti-HBs inicates? | Immunized or Cured |
| Antigen (+) HBsAg (+) HBeAg HBcAg - not measured (+) HBV DNA Antibody (-) Anti-HBs (+) Anti-HBC [IgG] (-) Anti-HBe | Chronic [replicative] HepB |
| Antigen (+) HBsAg (-) HBeAg HBcAg - not measured (-) HBV DNA Antibody (-) Anti-HBs (+) Anti-HBC [IgG] (+) Anti-HBe | Chronic [non-replicative] HepB |

| A way to measure fibrosis of the liver for those with hepatitis C. This scoring model is noninvasive, practical, and easy to use. | Aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index, or APRI |
| APRI formula and interpretation | [(AST/ULN AST) x 100]/Platelet count lower cutoff: 0.5 - very little to no fibrosis upper cutoff: 1.5 - strong indicator of cirrhosis |

| Chronic Hepatitis D serology | (+) HBV (-) HDAg (+) HDV RNA (+) Anti-HDV [IgG] |
| Hepatitis A Serology 1. Acute Infection 2. Immunized or Post-exposure | 1. (+) HAV RNA (+) IgM 2. (-) HAV RNA (+) IgG |
| Hepatitis E Serology 1. Acute Infection 2. Post-exposure [Cleared] | 1. (+) HEV RNA (+) IgM 2. (-) HEV RNA (+) IgG [2-3 years only] |
| An acidophilic (eosinophilic / pink-staining on H&E) globule of cells that represents a dying hepatocyte often surrounded by normal parenchyma. | Councilman body/Councilman hyaline body/Apoptotic body |
| HEV + Pregnancy | High risk for Fulminant Hepatitis |
| An area of the medulla oblongata that receives inputs from blood-borne drugs or hormones, and communicates with other structures in the vomiting center to initiate vomiting. [Triggered ng hepatotoxins sa hepatitis] | Chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) |
