Almost one fourth of participants (23.1%) had a …

  • Lum Et Al. Respond

    Paula J Lum, Kristen C Ochoa et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2004Referencias: 9

    Diamond correctly points out the difficulty of making comparisons between the presence of hepatitis B surface antibodies (anti-HBs) among persons reporting prior immunizations (Seattle Young Men’s Survey [YMS]) and anti-HBs seroconversion measured after a documented immunization series (the UFO Study). Recall bias and waning anti-HBs could certainly have contributed to the lower proportion (70%) of subjects with isolated anti-HBs that YMS investi…

Risk factors were identified for MSM (sex trade …
