| Core Tip |
Long-term entecavir therapy for patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) can result in histological improvement and regression of fibrosis substantially. However, the relationship between the serum low level hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA and fibrosis is unclear for CHB patients with partial virological response to entecavir. Our study found that although the cumulative probabilities of HBV DNA response showed a significant difference between hepatitis B e antigen-positive CHB patients with complete virological response and partial virological response to 144 wk of entecavir treatment, long-term low level HBV DNA did not deter-iorate the FIB-4, which was used to evaluate liver fibrosis, by the end of three years.
