Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In ANA‐positive patients with suspected autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), liver biopsy rarely altered therapeutic management when alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was below 101 U/L and cirrhosis was absent. These findings suggest that biopsy may be safely deferred in this low‐risk group.

Short‐Term Clinical Effects After Switching From Zinc Acetate Hydrate to Zinc Histidine Hydrate in Patients With Chronic Liver Disease
