Popis: BACKGROUND & AIMS Effectiveness of maternal antiviral prophylaxis in mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been extensively explored in studies where standard immunoprophylaxis is well secured to the newborns. This real-world study aims to test if maternal antiviral prophylaxis can safeguard the newborn when immunoprophylaxis administration was delayed or missed. METHODS Hepatitis B surface antigen-positive pregnant women were categorized into mothers with HBV DNA levels ≥2 × 105 IU/mL receiving nucleos(t)ide analogue during the third trimester; mothers with HBV DNA levels ≥2 × 105 IU/mL without antiviral treatment; and those with HBV DNA levels
