In this study, we found that NOX2 values were significantly higher in patients compared to healthy control (<i>P</i> < 0.01) and that the levels of serum NOX2 were significantly correlated with the serum levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) in chronic hepatitis B, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma patients.
Our study aimed to establish age and gender related RIs for ALT, AST, AKP, and GGT in China, and apply the new RI for ALT in children with chronic hepatitis B to use as a biochemical marker for disease progression.
