1.	Infection 02/01/1983 - "The protective efficacy of a hepatitis B vaccine against infections from transfusions of large volumes of highly infective blood in five immunized chimpanzees was assessed. " 05/01/1993 - "Hepatitis B vaccine has demonstrated to be very effective and safe preventing hepatitis B virus infection. " 07/01/1992 - "Thus, immune responses and efficacy of hepatitis B vaccine in infants were excellent, and immunity and protection against clinically significant HBV infection persisted for at least 5 to 10 years, features essential to success of a program of universal childhood immunization against HBV." 10/09/1980 - "We assessed the efficacy of an inactivated hepatitis B vaccine in a placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind trial in 1083 homosexual men known to be at high risk for hepatitis B virus infection. " 09/01/1999 - "Thus, immunization of chimpanzees with licensed recombinant hepatitis B vaccines stimulates anti-HBs that is broadly reactive and affords protection against infection with a surface gene mutant of HBV, suggesting that properly immunized individuals are not at significant risk of infection with this prototype variant strain of HBV."
2.	Hepatitis B 08/01/2010 - "Vaccination is the measure that is most effective in reducing the global incidence of hepatitis B and hepatitis B vaccines have now been available for over 20 years. " 10/21/1976 - "They may be important determinants in assessing infectivity of chronic carriers of HBs Ag and in evaluating efficacy of hepatitis B immune globulin and hepatitis B vaccines." 12/01/2011 - "The current immunization schedule for hepatitis B vaccine includes a dose given as early as possible after birth, preferably within 24 hours for all institutional deliveries because the birth dose of Hepatitis B vaccine is effective in preventing perinatal transmission of Hepatitis B. " 01/01/1993 - "The hepatitis B vaccine, which was introduced to use in Thailand in 1985, seems to be effective in reducing the prevalence of hepatitis B carriers year after year. " 01/01/1985 - "Follow-up studies have demonstrated the effect of this prevention, and the newly developed hepatitis B vaccine has further improved the possibilities for effective prophylaxis against occupational hepatitis B. "
3.	Chronic Hepatitis B 03/01/2002 - "It may be concluded that recombinant hepatitis B vaccine is effective in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B." 04/01/2007 - "Efficacy of hepatitis B vaccine in susceptible spouses of chronic hepatitis B virus infected individuals at the time of marriage." 12/01/2007 - "To study the specific cellular immunoresponse of peripheral blood lymphocytes in the chronic hepatitis B patients treated with different doses of recombinant hepatitis B vaccine. " 09/01/2014 - "Surface protein mutations in chronic hepatitis B patients who received hepatitis B vaccine therapy." 12/01/2007 - "The recombinant hepatitis B vaccine may increase the function of specific T lymphocytes in patients with chronic hepatitis B. "
4.	Hepatitis 12/01/1988 - "Hepatitis remains a problem, but this risk may be reduced to some degree through immunization with hepatitis B vaccines that have recently been proved safe and effective." 01/01/1997 - "Prophylaxis of acute viral hepatitis by immune serum globulin, hepatitis B vaccine, and health education: a sixteen year study of Japan overseas cooperation volunteers." 02/01/1978 - "The serologic diagnosis of non-A non-B hepatitis is a diagnosis of exclusion for assay systems for this form of disease are not yet available.A prototype hepatitis B vaccine has been prepared and is currently undergoing clinical trials. " 08/01/2012 - "Thirty patients received hepatitis B vaccine and 80% responded (hepatitis Bs titres ≥10 mIU/ml). " 03/28/2003 - "The status and likely impact of existing and potential new combined hepatitis B vaccines were broadly considered at the Viral Hepatitis Prevention Board (VHPB) meeting in Malta, October 2001. "
5.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 04/01/2007 - "They represent a major overhang in the vaccinology field, and, as anti-hepatitis B vaccine, will probably be effective in cancer prevention. " 09/01/2011 - "Randomized trial of the immunogenicity and safety of the Hepatitis B vaccine given in an accelerated schedule coadministered with the human papillomavirus type 16/18 AS04-adjuvanted cervical cancer vaccine." 06/01/2002 - "The administration of pre-S2-containing hepatitis B vaccines may give a better seroconversion and higher antibody response to vaccination in children with cancer. " 11/01/1995 - "Serologic responses to hepatitis B vaccine were investigated in 197 pediatric cancer patients. " 06/01/2011 - "Children born in counties with higher hepatitis B vaccine coverage had lower odds of all cancers combined (OR = 0.81, 95% CI: 0.67 to 0.98) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) specifically (OR = 0.63, 95% CI: 0.46 to 0.88).
