pubmed:abstractText |
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) to platelet ratio index (APRI) has been proposed as an easily determined and accurate noninvasive marker of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis C. To validate APRI in hepatitis C and to determine its usefulness in other liver diseases, we evaluated APRI in patients with liver fibrosis due to excessive alcohol consumption with or without viral hepatitis C.
