HBV genotypes were determined in two groups with different risk factors. &lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt; Group I consisted of 42 patients with chronic and acute hepatitis and group II with 25 men who have sex with men (MSM). HBV genotypes were determined by DNA sequencing of the S-gene. &lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt; Both groups differed with respect to genotype distribution (p &lt; 0.001). In group I, there were 31 (74%), 9 (21%) and 2 patients (5%) with HBV\/H, HBV\/D and HBV\/A; respectively. In group II, HBV\/H, HBV\/A, and HBV\/G were found in 13 (52%), 8 (32%) and 4 (16%) cases, respectively. By using an HBV\/G-specific PCR, 3 more cases of HBV\/G were identified in group II, rising to a total 28%. All HBV\/G strains were present in coinfection with other HBV genotypes, 86% with HBV\/H, and 14% with HBV\/A. &lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;\/i&gt; HBV\/H predominated in both groups. A high frequency of HBV\/G was found in MSM, which was always coinfected with HBV\/H or HBV\/A. Significant differences in HBV genotype distribution were also found, since HBV\/D was present only in patients with liver disease, whereas HBV\/G was present only in MSM.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000096307","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,8]],"date-time":"2006-12-08T14:31:12Z","timestamp":1165588272000},"page":"9-15","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":60,"title":["Difference of Hepatitis B Virus Genotype Distribution in Two Groups of Mexican Patients with Different Risk Factors"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"50","author":[{"given":"L.V.","family":"S\u00e1nchez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Y.","family":"Tanaka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Maldonado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Mizokami","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Panduro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1099%2F0022-1317-69-10-2575"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1006%2Fviro.1994.1060"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fjmv.20120"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053%2Fjhep.2001.27221"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.jhep.2004.03.004"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.jhep.2004.03.025"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086%2F421502"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086%2F516507"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fjmv.20015"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fhep.1840110218"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053%2Fjhep.2002.32096"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128%2FJVI.76.12.6131-6137.2002"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fjmv.10166"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1099%2Fvir.0.19034-0"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1386-6346%2898%2900044-8"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Fnar%2Fgkh419"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0166-0934%2801%2900374-3"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Fnar%2F22.22.4673"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2FBF01840889"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs007050050479"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1099%2Fvir.0.79811-0"},{"key":"ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fhep.20365"},{"key":"ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0140-6736%2802%2911913-1"},{"key":"ref24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136%2Fsti.74.2.110"},{"key":"ref25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fjmv.1069"},{"key":"ref26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089%2F088922203322280874"},{"key":"ref27","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1440-1746.2002.02605.x"},{"key":"ref28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086%2F516458"},{"key":"ref29","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128%2FJCM.39.9.3200-3203.2001"}],"container-title":["Intervirology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/96307","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/96307","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T02:51:24Z","timestamp":1745463084000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000096307"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,24]]},"references-count":29,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000096307","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0300-5526","1423-0100"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0300-5526","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-0100","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,24]]}}}
