Viral complexity of the HBV quasispecies in association with clinical status.
<p>(A) The Shannon entropy values for each viral genomic region were determined in the liver of chronic-naïve and chronic-NA cases. (B) Among the chronic-naïve cases, the Shannon entropy values are shown for patients with serum HBV DNA levels less than 5.0 log copies/ml (<5.0) and greater than 5.0 log copies/ml (≥5.0) (left panel), patients under the age of 55 years (<55) and over the age of 55 (≥55) (middle panel), and patients with low (F1–2) and high (F3–4) liver fibrosis levels (right panel). preS: pre-surface, preC-C: precore∼core N.S.: not significant.</p
