A new model using routinely available clinical parameters to predict significant liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B.
<h4>Objective</h4>We developed a predictive model for significant fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) based on routinely available clinical parameters.<h4>Methods</h4>237 treatment-naïve CHB patients [58.4% hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive] who had undergone liver bio...
