METHODS: A total of 137 consecutive patients with CriB who underwent percutaneous liver biopsy were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into two groups according to their aminotransferase (ALT) level. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), the likelihood ratio (LR) of aminotransferase/platelet ratio index (APRI) ≥ 1.5 or 〈 1.5 in combination with different hyaluronic acid (HA) cut-off points were calculated for the presence of moderate to severe fibrosis/cirrhosis (fibrosis stages 2 and 4) and no to mild fibrosis/cirrhosis (fibrosis stages 0 and 1). RESULTS: The APRI correlated with fibrosis stage in CriB patients. The APRI ≥1.5 in combination with a cut-off HA cut-off point 〉 300 ng/mL could detect moderate to severe fibrosis (stages 2-4) in Crib patients. The PPV was 93.7%, the specificity was 98.9%. The APRI 〈 1.5 in combination with different HA cut-off points could not detect no to mild fibrosis in CHB patients. CONCLUSION: The APRI ≥ 1.5 in combination with a HA cut-off point 〉 300 ng/mL can detect moderate to severe fibrosis (stages 2-4) in Crib patients.展开更多

Methods Ribostamycin protected by carbobenzoxy group was treated with Nail, to give different protected intermediates under respective controllable cyclization reaction conditions. New ribostamycin derivative was obtained after the cleavage of carbobenzoxy groups. Result The novel selective protection of ribostamycin was achieved by the synthesis of protected intermediates. New ribostamycin derivative was obtained, but showed no expected antibacterial activity. Conclusion Several ribostamycin cyclic carbamate derivatives were obtained by novel selective protection strategy, which shows the practicability and convenience of the protection strategy. But these new ribostamycin derivatives containing cyclic carbamates structure may not be an ideal leading compound for antibiotic activity.展开更多
