Comparison of changes in pre-core (A) and basal core promoter (B) mutation type among 3 groups of patients classified according to hepatitis B e antigen /anti-hepatitis B e positive status. A: A significant difference was seen in patients with hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion (P = 0.022). One patient whose pre-core (pre-C) mutation was undetermined at the start of follow-up was wild type at the end point; B: Of the 3 patients whose basal core promoter (BCP) mutation was undetermined at the start of follow-up, 2 were wild type and 1 was undetermined at the end point. HBeAg: Hepatitis B e antigen.
