Incidence of Hepatitis C Infection in a Hepatitis C Endemic Township in Southern Taiwan
南台灣某一C型肝炎盛行鄉之C型肝炎年發生率
摘要
高雄縣梓官鄉為C型肝炎盛行區，本社區追蹤研究的目的在於探討該鄉之的C型肝炎年發生率。有173位成人鄉民（含男性82名、女性91名，平均年齡55.5± 9.9歲）接受間隔一年之兩次C型肝炎抗體陽性的個案有一例變為陰性（年陰轉率為1.2%，95%信賴區間：0%～5.5%）。在89例原為C型肝炎抗體陰性的個案之中，有四例轉變為陽性（年發生率為4.5%，95%信賴區間：0.2%～8.8%）。本研究的結果顯示目前C型肝炎仍在梓官鄉傳播中。

To realize the incidence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in an HCV endemic township, Tzukuan, in Taiwan, we conducted a follow-up community-based survey. A total of 173 adults, 82 males and 91 females, with mean age of 55.5 ± 9.9 years received initial and follow-up anti-HCV tests with one-year interval. One (1.2%, 95% CI: 0%~5.5%) of 84 anti-HCV-positive subjects was negative-seroconversion, and 4 (4.5%, 95% CI: 0.2%~8.8%) of 89 anti-HCV-negative subjects were positive-serocon-version. The results indicated that hepatitis C might be still spreading in the HCV-endemic area now.
