Abstract
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a global public health problem. HBV vaccination is the most effective tool to reduce the incidence of HBV disease. Despite there has not been new clinical developments for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B in the last few years, changing epidemiology and current insights on natural history, diagnostic tools and therapy indications make necessary an update of the former version of the consensus document of the Spanish Association for Study of the Liver on the treatment of hepatitis B infection published in 2012. The current document updates the management of chronic hepatitis B. The treatment of choice is the long-term administration of a nucleos(t)ide analogue with high barrier to resistance (entecavir, tenofovir or tenofovir alafenamide). Pegylated interferon may be an option in patients with non-advanced liver disease, but its applicability is limited due to the low efficacy and poor tolerability. All patients must be monitored for the risk of progression to advanced liver disease and development of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
The increasing number of patients on the Singapore national liver transplant waiting list and the lack of donor livers have necessitated a review of the limited use of marginal donor liver grafts. Some grafts are of good quality but are considered marginal due to positive donor antibody to hepatitis B virus core protein serology, and negative hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B DNA. The fear is of viral reactivation during periods of intense immunosuppression. This is made possible by the ability of the hepatitis B virion to reside in a dormant state within the hepatocyte nucleus despite HBsAg clearance, i.e. the occult hepatitis B infection (OBI). In truth, appropriate selection of recipients and effective post-transplantation immunoprophylaxis significantly reduce the risk of hepatitis B viral reactivation. This article explains the confusion surrounding OBI and reviews current recommendations on how to manage such donor liver grafts.

Abstract
Prophylactic measures are used to reduce DNHB after HBsAg-negative patients receive anti-HBc-positive liver grafts. This study investigated the incidence of DNHB and clinical outcomes in pediatric LT recipients under HBIG prophylaxis, with or without hepatitis B vaccination. Between 1995 and 2013, 51 HBsAg-negative pediatric recipients underwent living-donor LT from anti-HBc-positive donors. The median (range) age was 4 (0.1-17) years, 23 (45%) were male, and 71% were negative for both anti-HBc and anti-HBc. During a median follow-up of 12.1 (0.06-19.9) years, 13 (25.4%) developed DNHB; 7 of the 13 achieved HBsAg seroconversion after administration of LAM or ETV. Among studied patients, 20 (39%) received hepatitis B vaccination, and 2 of them (10%) developed DNHB. At last follow-up, 41% (21/51) discontinued HBIG either after successful HBV vaccination (n = 17) or retransplantation with anti-HBc-negative grafts (n = 4). In conclusion, pediatric LT recipients of anti-HBc-positive grafts, most of them were naïve to HBV infection, were at high risk of DNHB, and consistent monitoring for the early detection of DNHB was necessary. A combination use of post-LT vaccination is promising prophylactic strategy against DNHB.

Abstract
Infectious complications after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) remain a clinical challenge. This is a guideline provided by the AGIHO (Infectious Diseases Working Group) of the DGHO (German Society for Hematology and Medical Oncology). A core group of experts prepared a preliminary guideline, which was discussed, reviewed, and approved by the entire working group. The guideline provides clinical recommendations for the preventive management including prophylactic treatment of viral, bacterial, parasitic, and fungal diseases. The guideline focuses on antimicrobial agents but includes recommendations on the use of vaccinations. This is the updated version of the AGHIO guideline in the field of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation utilizing methods according to evidence-based medicine criteria.

Abstract
DNHB is common in countries with high prevalence of hepatitis B, and therefore, contracting hepatitis B after LT with HBcAb(+) grafts is a major concern. We studied DNHB in 247 children (aged <18 yr) who underwent LT from 1994 to 2013. Sixty-six of 247 recipients received HBcAb(+) donor grafts. The incidence of DNHB was 5.7% (14 of 247 children) and that in HBcAb(+) donor grafts was 19.7% (13 of 66 children). The incidence of DNHB without LAM prophylaxis was 31.3% (nine of 29 children), while that with prophylaxis was 10.8% (four of 37 children). LAM prophylaxis negatively correlated with DNHB by Cox regression analysis (p = 0.028, odds ratio = 0.258). Among 13 DNHB patients with HBcAb(+) donor grafts, eight recovered from DNHB and four showed the emergence of LAM resistance. There was no DNHB-related graft failure. This study showed that HBcAb(+) donor graft was associated with development of DNHB, and use of LAM prophylaxis decreased the incidence of DNHB with HBcAb(+) graft.
