GPT and Cirrhosis: ULR analyses revealed that six out of the eight baseline factors examined were predictive of an SVR (Wald chi-square test, p<0.0001, S3 Table): younger age (≤40 years versus 40–≤55 years versus >55 years), lower weight (<70 versus 70–<90 kg versus ≥90 kg), the absence of cirrhosis (no cirrhosis versus cirrhosis), lower ALT ratio (<2.5 versus ≤2.5 x ULN), higher platelet count (>200 versus 100–≤200 versus <100x 109/mL), and lower HCV RNA level (<400,000 versus ≥ 400,000 IU/mL).
