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.
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.
