Title:Diagnostic Accuracy of the Aspartate Aminotransferase-to-Platelet Ratio
Index for the Prediction of Hepatitis B-Related Fibrosis: A leading Meta-Analysis.
Version: 3Date:7 December 2011
Reviewer: Valentina Medici
Reviewer's report:
The authors have properly addressed my comments.
One minor correction of the English language: :APRI may not be a good tool of
predicting hepatitis B-related significant fibrosis and cirrhosis and can also not
reduce the number of liver biopsies among CHB patients".
Level of interest: An article of importance in its field
Quality of written English: Needs some language corrections before being
published
Statistical review: Yes, but I do not feel adequately qualified to assess the
statistics.
