¹>Except for clinical decompensation where baseline was “time of cirrhosis diagnosis”。

²For this purpose, we only took into consideration cirrhotic patients; ³Underlined values are those with a P-value < 0.1, because a tendency towards significance was observed. ALT: Alanine aminotransferase; HCV: Hepatitis C virus; HIV: Human immunodeficiency virus; IFN: Interferon; NS: No statistical significance.
