<s>[INST] I have a friend who has been diagnosed of being Hepatitis B positive. He has just had his profile taken and these are the results: HbsAg with titer-ECLIA method - 8,905; Anti Hbs-ECLIA - 2.0; HbeAg - 0.140; Anti Hbe (reverse) - 0.003; Anti Hbc IgM - 0.047; Anti Hbc IgG (reverse) - 0.444 Please interpret them and what can he do to prevent these results from progressing. [/INST] Hi, Thank you asking ChatDoctorHbsAg 8,905 show that he is carrier of hepatic virus B.the other exams show that he has not acute hepatitis B, but may be is chronic hepatitis B.to show if it is chronic hepatitis B, how active is the virus he should perform some other tests like ALT, AST transaminase, bilirubin direct and indirect, HBV-DNA, abdominal ultrasound. After that he should consult a Castro hepatologist to decide if he has chronic hepatitis B, and if he should start anti-viral treatment. All the best Chat Doctor.  </s>
