Fibrosis stage is an independent predictor of outcome in primary biliary cholangitis despite biochemical treatment response

Summary Background Fibrosis stage predicts prognosis in patients with chronic liver disease independent of aetiology, although its precise role in risk stratification in patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) remains undefined. Aim To assess the utility of baseline fibrosis stage in predicting long‐term outcomes in the context of biochemical risk stratification Methods In a large and globally representative cohort of patients with PBC,...
