Abstract:
With reference to various clinical studies on interferon-α and pegylated interferon-α around the world,patients with chronic hepatitis C who receive antiviral therapy and achieve the elimination of hepatitis C virus may have significant relief or even reversion of liver fibrosis,as well as reductions in the incidence rates of decompensated liver cirrhosis,related complications,and hepatocellular carcinoma and an increase in survival rate.
