Management of hepatitis B patients with antiviral resistance.

abstract：BACKGROUND:A genome-wide association study revealed an association between variants of the inosine triphosphatase (ITPA) gene and ribavirin (RBV)-induced anaemia. The aim of this study was to replicate this finding in an independent Japanese cohort and to define a method to allow pretreatment prediction of anaemia in c...
