dc.description.abstractAim: The aim of this study was to investigate whether haemodialysis (HD) patients suffering from diabetes mellitus could be considered at risk for the development of the protective antibodies to hepatitis B (HB) vaccination and, to evaluate the effectiveness of tetanus toxoid (TT) administrated 2 days before HB vaccination. Methods: Forty-nine HD patients were divided into two groups: group A (19 diabetic patients) and group B (30 non-diabetic patients). A dose of 40 mg recombinant HB vaccine was injected intramuscularly to the patients at 0, 1, 2 and 6 months. Results: After the completion of the course, the patients in group A were found to have a lower protective antibody rates than the patients in group B (57.8% vs 70%) (P > 0.05). After the administration of additional booster doses during 12 months, the protective antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAb) levels were detected in 78.9% and 96.6% of the patients in group A and group B, respectively (P > 0.05). The patients not having protective HBsAb levels were administered TT and HB vaccines, and after course, all of them have produced protective HBsAb levels. Conclusion: The present study showed that diabetic patients on HD may carry a greater risk of not seroconverting than non-diabetic ones for antibody response to HB vaccination. The use of TT 2 days before HB vaccination may be a useful and effective method of enhancing the immune response to HB vaccination, especially in the patients with diabetes mellitus on HD.en_US
