Result: In brief, those patients infected with sgF4 and gD mutated
G1896A more frequently than
A1762T/
G1764A (p = 0.007 and p<0.001 respectively), whereas those patients carrying sgF1b and sgA2 had the opposite mutation pattern, showing higher rates of mutations in positions 1762 and 1764 than in 1896 (p = 0.013 and p = 0.010 respectively).
Result: In spite of the low prevalence of mutations in
AHB infections (25.7%), those subgenotypes more frequently observed in this stage, sgA2 and sgF1b, had the double mutation
A1762T/
G1764A, while gD and sgF4 did not mutate these positions (Table 3).
Result: The double mutation
A1762T/
G1764A was more frequently found in sgF1b infections (75.
