Figure 2. Necroinflammation grade and fibrosis stage in HBeAg-positive patients.

Figure 2

(A) Necroinflammation grade in HBeAg-positive patients. Significant necroinflammation (≥A2) was found 1.2%, 23.8% and 51.1% in PNALT, ALT 1-2×ULN and >2×ULN group, respectively. (B) Fibrosis stage in HBeAg-positive patients. Significant fibrosis (≥F2) was found 49.4%, 69.8% and 81.6% in PNALT, ALT 1-2×ULN and >2×ULN group, respectively. Significant histological abnormalities in >2×ULN group were much higher than those in PNALT or ALT 1-2×ULN group (both P < 0.001).
