AbstractAIM: Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with normal alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels are not free from significant hepatic lesions. Recently, there has been an improved understanding of the clinical significance of quantitative hepatitis B core antibody levels (qAnti-HBc) during CHB management. In this cross-section study, we evaluated the utility of qAnti-HBc in identifying significant liver inflammation in CHB patients.
METHODS: A total of 469 patients (the training set: 363; the validation set: 106) underwent liver biopsy (LB) were included. The qAnti-HBc levels were quantified and the relationship between histology and serum markers was systematically analyzed.
RESULTS: In the training set, qAnti-HBc levels were found to have significant diagnostic value for moderate to severe liver inflammation (≥G2) in all patients (AUROC=0.768, 95%CI: 0.721-0.810, P < 0.001) and in patients with normal or near-normal ALT levels (AUROC = 0.767, 95%CI: 0.697-0.828, P < 0.001). Our novel index (AC index) for the identification of ≥G2 inflammation, which combined the qAnti-HBc and ALT levels, significantly improved diagnostic performance (AUROC = 0.813, 95%CI: 0.768-0.852) compared to the use of ALT alone (AUROC = 0.779, 95%CI: 0.732-0.821) in all patients. In the validation set, AC index showed an improved AUROC of 0.890 (95%CI: 0.814-0.942) and 0.867 (95%CI: 0.749-0.943) in all patients and patients with normal ALT levels, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: The qAnti-HBc level predicts significant liver inflammation well, even in patients with normal or near-normal ALT levels. Compared with conventional ALT level, AC index is a more reliable non-invasive biomarker for significant liver inflammation in CHB patients.

抽象
目标：

具有正常丙氨酸氨基转移酶（ALT）水平的慢性乙型肝炎（CHB）患者没有明显的肝脏病变。最近，CHB管理中对定量乙型肝炎核心抗体水平（qAnti-HBc）的临床意义有了较大的了解。在本横断面研究中，我们评估了qAnti-HBc在确定CHB患者肝脏重要炎症中的效用。
方法：

共纳入469例患者（训练组：363;验证组：106）进行肝活检（LB）。量化qAnti-HBc水平，系统分析组织学和血清标志物之间的关系。
结果：

在训练集中，所有患者（AUROC = 0.768,95％CI：0.721-0.810，P <0.001）和患者的中度至重度肝炎（≥G2）发现qAnti-HBc水平具有显着诊断价值正常或接近正常的ALT水平（AUROC = 0.767,95％CI：0.697-0.828，P <0.001）。与单独使用ALT相比，我们用于鉴定组合qAnti-HBc和ALT水平的≥G2炎症的新型指数（AC指数）显着提高了诊断性能（AUROC = 0.813,95％CI：0.768-0.852） AUROC = 0.779,95％CI：0.732-0.821）。在验证集中，所有患者和ALT水平正常的患者，AC指数分别显示出0.890（95％CI：0.814-0.942）和0.867（95％CI：0.749-0.943）的AUROC改善。
结论：

即使在正常或接近正常ALT水平的患者中，qAnti-HBc水平也能很好的预测明显的肝脏炎症。与常规ALT水平相比，AC指数是CHB患者显着肝脏炎症的更可靠的非侵入性生物标志物。
