Air pollution causes abnormal alanine aminotransferase levels in patients with chronic hepatitis B
Higher concentrations of particulate matter ≤2.5 µm in diameter caused elevated baseline alanine aminotransferase levels in patients with chronic hepatitis B receiving nucleotide/NA therapy. The impact of particulate matter ≤2.5 µm in diameter on abnormal alanine aminotransferase levels was particularly pronounced in patients without cirrhosis.
