Immunohistological Evaluation of Liver Sections.

aThe degree of fatty change was scored as 0 (<5%), 1 (6–33%), 2 (34–66%) 3 (>66%). bHepatocyte ballooning was scored on a scale of 0–4 where 0 is none and 4 is many. cGrade and Stage were scored using the Batts and Ludwig criteria. dFAS and caspase staining was scored semi-quantitatively where 0 = none, 1 = focal weak, 2 = diffuse weak; 3 = diffuse weak and focal strong; 4 = diffuse strong. For caspase staining, m is macrophages and h is hepatocytes. eThe lobular apoptotic body count is an average of 5 fields counted at magnification ×100. fThe number of Tunel positive nuclei is an average of 15 fields at magnification ×200.
