Multivariate Cox proportional-hazards model investigating associations of different VL trajectory patterns with liver disease progression to fibrosis and/or cirrhosis among adults with chronic HBV infection on NA therapy.
Forest plot showing the hazard ratios and 95% CIs for the development of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis, which were calculated with Cox proportional-hazards model. ADV, adefovir; ALP, alkaline phosphatase; ALT, alanine transaminase; Anti-HBe, Anti-Hepatitis B e-antigen; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; ETV, entecavir; HBV, hepatitis B virus; HBeAg, Hepatitis B e-Antigen; HR, hazard ratio; IMD, Index of Multiple Deprivation; LAM, lamivudine; NA, nucleos(t)ide analogue; TDF, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate; VL, viral load.
