Core Tip |
We highlight that sustained viral response (SVR) outcomes in patients with their non-cirrhotic status determined by clinical judgment using simple, cheap, non-invasive tests such as platelet count, sonographic finding of spleen size and hepatic morphology, are comparable with those who had specialized tests such as liver biopsy, vibration-controlled transient elastography or specialized serum biomarker test. We also validate the fact that hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA plays a role in predicting SVR (AUROC = 0.743, 95%CI: 0.66-0.82) with a cutoff value of 2.2 million IU/mL. Significantly higher 98% SVR was observed among HCV RNA < 2.2 million IU/mL, compared to 92% SVR with HCV RNA ≥ 2.2 million IU/mL. |
