Histological activity despite normal ALT and IgG serum levels in patients with autoimmune hepatitis and cirrhosis

Histological activity despite normal ALT and IgG serum levels in patients with autoimmune hepatitis and cirrhosis

Background & Aims: In autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), normal levels of transaminases and IgG define biochemical remission and are considered the best surrogate markers for histological remission. This study assessed whether this also applies to patients with AIH cirrhosis. Methods: In this Europ...
