Abstract Background Mac-2 Binding Protein Glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi) is a novel
serological glyco-biomarker for staging liver fibrosis. Here, we aimed to evaluate the …

Background and Aim A reliable, non‐invasive biomarker for diagnosis of liver fibrosis in
chronic liver disease patients is needed. The aim of this study was to assess by meta …

Background: Mac-2-binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi), a novel serum marker
for liver fibrosis, was seldom studied in chronic hepatitis B (CHB). We aimed to evaluate its …

BACKGROUND Assessing liver fibrosis is important for predicting the efficacy of direct-
acting antivirals (DAAs) and patient prognosis. Non-invasive techniques to assess liver …

Purpose This prospective study was conducted to assess the diagnostic accuracy of two‐
dimensional shear wave elastography (2D SWE) in the diagnosis of liver fibrosis in patients …

Wisteria floribunda agglutinin-positive Mac-2-binding protein (WFA+-M2BP) had been
suggested as a possible glycobiomarker for assessing liver fibrosis. Here, we conducted this …

Biliary atresia (BA) is a congenital cholestatic disease that can seriously damage children's
liver function. It is one of the main reasons for liver transplantation in children. Early …
