MaHeVi Study: Supplementary Tables on Hepatitis B/C/D and HIV Serology

Six supplementary Excel tables from the MaHeVi study provide serological and demographic data on hepatitis B, C, D, and HIV infections. The tables include participant counts by site and ethnicity, infection markers from dried blood spots, and sub-group analyses of HBV-exposure determinants. The 38.9 KB dataset was authored by Roxane Schaub and last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing determinants of HBV exposure based on odds ratios and confidence intervals presented in sub-group tables.
• Comparing serological marker profiles for HBV, HCV, HDV, and HIV infections as detailed in the molecular markers table.
• Studying demographic distributions and sample sizes across different study sites and language communities.
• Validating dried blood spot (DBS) testing methods against whole blood sample results referenced in the description.

Strengths

• Includes six distinct tables covering demographics, serology, infection profiles, and statistical analyses.
• Provides detailed methodological notes on statistical modeling, including handling of missing data and counterintuitive odds ratios.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale modeling.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is very small at 38.9 KB, indicating limited scope.
