Gana ve Nijerya'da Bulunan Kan Donörlerindeki Hepatit B Prevalansının Sistematik İncelemesi
Amaç: Bu çalışmada,
Gana ve Nijerya'da bulunan kan bağışçıları arasındaki hepatit B prevalansının
sistematik bir derleme ile karşılaştırılması amaçlamıştır.
Materyal ve
Metot: Gana ve Nijerya'da kan donörleri arasında hepatit B prevalansı üzerinde
karşılaştırmalı sistematik bir derleme yapıldı. İncelenen makaleler 2010 ve
2017 yılları arasında yapılmıştır.
Bulgular: Gana'daki kan
donörleri arasında hepatit B'nin prevalansı %7,23 ile %14,60 arasındayken,
Nijerya'daki kan donörleri arasında yaygınlık oranı %7,50 ile %19,90
arasındadır.
Sonuç: Her iki ülkede hepatit B için endemik olmakla
birlikte, Nijerya'daki kan donörleri arasında hepatit B'nin yaygınlık oranı
Gana'daki kan donörlerinden daha yüksektir.
A Systematic Review of The Prevalence of Hepatitis B Among Blood Donors in Ghana and Nigeria
Objectives: This study
aims to compare the prevalence of hepatitis B among blood donors in Ghana and
Nigeria through a systematic review.
Materials
and Methods: A comparative-systematic review was conducted
on the prevalence of hepatitis B among blood donors in Ghana and Nigeria. The
articles reviewed were conducted including years from 2010 to 2017.
Results: The
prevalence rate of hepatitis B among blood donors in Ghana ranged from 7.23% to
14.60%, while the prevalence rate among blood donors in Nigeria ranged from 7.50%
to 19.90%.
Conclusion: Therefore,
the prevalence rate of hepatitis B among blood donors in Nigeria is higher than
the prevalence rate of hepatitis B among blood donors in Ghana though both
countries are still considered hepatitis B endemic countries.
