Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The clinical features of hepatitis C virus (HCV) carriers with persistently normal alanine aminotransferase (PNALT) levels (ALT < or = 34 IU/l) have not been fully elucidated. We investigated clinical factors associated with ALT flare-up in PNALT individuals in a HCV hyperendemic area of Japan. METHODS: We analyzed 101 HCV carriers who had PNALT between 1993 and 2000. The first occurrence of ALT...
