For 30 patients, we obtained no exact laboratory value of the International Normalized Ratio (only < 1.5). For these patients, we calculated the International Normalized Ratio based on the Quick. ALAT: Alanine aminotransferase; ASAT: Aspartate aminotransferase; AFP: Alpha-fetoprotein; INR: International Normalized Ratio; miR-21: Hsa-miR-21-5p.
