✦ Synopsis


To analyze the correlations between the presence of cirrhosis and hepatocellular inflammation and the serum concentrations of the amino-terminal peptide of procollagen type 111 in chronic liver disease, we measured prodlagen type 1 1 1 concentrations in paired serum samples from 46 patients (17 had cirrhosis) with severe chronic active hepatitis during a therapeutic treatment trial. Coded sera were analyzed for procollagen type 111 concentrations using both a standard and a recently described Fab radioimmunoassay to compare their relative diagnostic accuracy.
