Estudio de concordancia en el grado de fibrosis hepáticaestimada mediante los índices bioquímicos APRI y FORNS, y la elastografía de transición (Fibroscan®) en pacientes coinfectados por VIH-VHC

In the HIV and HCV coinfected patients, the use of the APRI and Forns biochemistry indexes to calculate grade of liver fibrosis does not successfully classify at least half of the patients. However, in the patients classified as having high or low fibrosis, the consistency between the calculations obtained by elastography and those derived from the APRI and Forns indexes is moderate to high.
