Correlation between PTX3 levels and (a) hyaluronic acid (HA), (b) TGF-, (c) APRI index, (d) FIB‐4 score, (e) GPR ratio, and (f) LSM. Data were analyzed by Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient test. APRI, platelet ratio index; FIB‐4 score; GPR, gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase to platelet ratio; HA, hyaluronic acid; LSM, liver stiffness measurement; TGF-, transforming growth factor‐.
