OBJECTIVE To investigate the relatedness between chronic hepatitis C patients in southern Anhui Province, and the serum ALT levels, the quantity of HCV RNA and the HCV genotypes. METHODS The rate method and fluorescence quantitative PCR method were used to detect serum levels of ALT and HCV RNA in 141 cases of chronic hepatitis C patients in southern Anhui Province. Reverse transcript PCR was used to genotype in 50 cases of specimens. RESULTS Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to analyze correlation between serum ALT levels and the quantity of HCV RNA, rs=0.213, P=0.011
