Clinical, virological and histological features of pediatric CHC patients.

F: female, M: male. ND: not determined Bx I, Bx II, Bx III denote: multiple liver biopsies. Risk factor for HCV infection: T: transfusion, V: vertical transmission.ALT: alanine aminotransferase; AST: aspartate aminotransferase. Normal ALT and AST levels were ≤32 and ≤48 IU/L, respectively when test was done at 37°C.#Fibrosis stages according METAVIR.

F：女性（female），M：男性（male）。ND：未明确（not determined）。Bx I、Bx II、Bx III 指代多次肝脏活检（liver biopsies）。丙型肝炎病毒（HCV）感染的危险因素：T：输血（transfusion），V：垂直传播（vertical transmission）。谷丙转氨酶（ALT, alanine aminotransferase）与谷草转氨酶（AST, aspartate aminotransferase）：当检测温度为37℃时，二者的正常参考值上限分别为≤32 IU/L和≤48 IU/L。# 根据METAVIR分级的肝纤维化分期。
