Liver Test Abnormalities in Patients with HIV Mono-Infection: Assessment with Simple Non-Invasive Fibrosis Markers

Abstract

Background Patients with HIV mono-infection may develop chronic liver disease due to a number of factors including hepatic steatosis. We estimated the prevalence and predictors of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in a cohort of HIV-mono-infected patients with persistently deranged liver function tests.
