Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Limited data are available regarding the association of hepatitis B virus (HBV) mutations with liver fibrosis in HBV infection. The study aimed to clarify whether HBV preS deletion mutation is associated with liver fibrosis progression. METHODS: A total of 469 patients were enrolled, including 324 with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), 28 with HBV-related compensated liver cirrhosis (LC), and 117...
