Carriage of hepatitis B virus can be simply understood as carrying the hepatitis B virus but not having the disease. The hepatitis B two-to-one test can determine whether the patient is carrying the hepatitis B virus. If the test results indicate that the patient is positive for hepatitis B surface antigen, positive for e antigen and positive for core antibody, i.e., major triplet, or positive for surface antigen, positive for e antibody and positive for core antibody, i.e., minor triplet, it indicates that the patient is carrying the hepatitis B virus in the body. Patients who have liver function tests, such as elevated transaminases, suggest that they may have hepatitis B. If transaminases are not elevated and bilirubin is normal, this generally indicates that the patient is carrying the hepatitis B virus. Patients with hepatitis B virus usually do not need treatment, but need regular liver function, hepatitis B DNA, liver ultrasound and other tests to determine their condition.
