  1. Data are expressed as means (SD) or percentage. SD, standard deviation; BMI, body mass index; HBsAg, hepatitis B surface antigen; WBC, white blood cell count; MPV, mean platelet volume; PDW, platelet distribution width; AST, aspartate transaminase; ALT, alanine transaminase; γ-GGT, γ-glutamyl transferase; AFP, alphafetoprotein; CA19-9, carbohydrate antigen 19–9; APRI, aspartate aminotransferase/platelet ratio index; FIB-4, fibrosis-4; NLR, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio. Bold indicates statistically significant values (P < 0.05)
