title: [The territorial and age-related characteristics of the distribution of patients with non-A, non-B viral hepatitis infected via the fecal-oral mechanism in foci of elevated viral hepatitis morbidity in the Uzbek SSR].
abstract: The study of patients from 10 foci of acute viral hepatitides for the presence of HBsAg (in the passive reverse hemagglutination test) and anti-hepatitis A virus IgM (in the radioimmunoassay) has shown high frequency and variability in the spread of hepatitis non-A, non-B, the prevalence of adults aged 20-29 years and children aged 2-4 years among persons involved into the epidemic process and the tendency towards an increase in the proportion of hepatitis non-A, non-B in the total number of cases of viral hepatitides in the republic.
