pubmed:abstractText |
The cut-off index value of immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc; AxSYM CORE-M, Abbott) for diagnosing acute hepatitis B is 1.2. A high false-positive rate of IgM anti-HBc was observed in acute flare-ups of chronic hepatitis B in Taiwanese patients. Thus the purpose of the present paper was to study the optimal index value of IgM anti-HBc in Taiwanese subjects.
