Hazard ratios and p values based on univariate Cox proportional hazards regression model.
p Value<0.05 statistically significant.
CI, confidence interval; n/a, not applicable since this is a continuous variable; HBV, hepatitis B virus; HCV, hepatitis C virus; APRI, aspartate aminotransferase/platelet ratio index.
