Abstract | BACKGROUND: AIMS: METHODS: Genetic variations were identified through direct DNA sequencing and genotyped using TaqMan assay (n = 1,103). In order to investigate the relationship of complement component 9 with chronic hepatitis B virus clearance and hepatocellular carcinoma occurrence, differences in SNP and haplotype frequency distributions were analyzed using logistic and multiple regression analyses with adjusted age and gender as covariates. RESULTS: CONCLUSIONS:
