| Core Tip |
Gray zone patients with chronic hepatitis B represent a critical subgroup that is often overlooked by traditional treatment guidelines. This mini-review highlights the need for a paradigm shift toward a more inclusive and risk-adapted therapeutic approach. By utilizing novel biomarkers, advanced predictive models, and noninvasive tools, clinicians can better identify high-risk patients and implement early antiviral therapy, ultimately reducing the risks of liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma in this vulnerable population. |
