Algorithm of Golgi protein 73 and liver stiffness accurately diagnoses significant fibrosis in chronic <scp>HBV</scp> infection

Abstract

Serum GP73 is a robust biomarker for significant fibrosis diagnosis. GP73-LS algorithm provided better diagnostic accuracy than currently available approaches. More than 60% antiviral naïve CHB patients could use this algorithm without resorting to liver biopsy.
