摘要
A small proportion of healthy children fail to develop antibodies against hepatitis B after three doses of vaccine. Few data are available regarding the optimal re-immunization strategy. We measured the immune response I month after a single supplementary dose of recombinant hepatitis B vaccines in 18 young preadolescents who were non- or hyporesponsive after a regular primary course of three doses of recombinant hepatitis B vaccines. Among them, 100% seroconverted and 89% reached the seroprotective titer of 10 milli-International Units (mIU)/ml. Most healthy children, particularly if they are hyporesponders, will have reached the seroprotective level after one dose and will not need further injections. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
