Comparison of the GMT of anti-HBs 1 month and 8 years later with different schedules.

Group	N	GMT1 (95% CI) (mIU/mL)	F#	P	N	GMT2 (95% CI) (mIU/mL)	F#	P
Group I	241	51.29 (38.02–67.61)	55.26	<0.001	104	22.91 (14.45–36.31)	3.61	0.029

Group III	240	478.63 (354.81–630.96)ab			93	8.91 (5.25–15.49)a

N, Total number; GMT, the geometric mean titer of anti-HBs; GMT 1, GMT 1 month later; GMT 2, GMT 8 years later.

^#The one-way analysis of variance was used to compare the GMT among the three groups and the leastsignificant difference (LSD) was used for multiple comparisons.

^aP < 0.05, compared with Group I.

^bP < 0.05, compared with Group II
