Evaluation of hepatic fibrosis is usually performed by histopathological examination of biopsies. However, this is an invasive and potentially dangerous procedure. Several studies have proposed serum biological markers of hepatic fibrosis. This communication evaluates the use of serum cytokines as markers of hepatic fibrosis in hepatitis C, schistosomiasis, and co-infection.
肝纤维化的评估通常通过活检的组织病理学检查来进行。然而，这是一种侵入性且有潜在危险的操作。多项研究提出了肝纤维化的血清生物学标志物。本报告评估了血清细胞因子作为丙型肝炎、血吸虫病及合并感染中肝纤维化标志物的用途。
