Core Tip |
Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected individuals with persistently normal serum alanine aminotransferase levels (PNALT) may develop severe liver fibrosis, which requires antiviral therapy. Following up on our previous findings, this multicenter, cross-sectional study showed that ceruloplasmin (CP) has an inverse correlation with liver fibrosis and is a promising predictive marker for liver fibrosis among HBV-infected individuals with PNALT. We developed a noninvasive model using CP, platelet, and HBsAg levels to identify the various stages of fibrosis among HBV-infected individuals with PNALT. Our model could reduce the need for liver biopsy before antiviral treatment. |
