Table 3 Correlation between HAV RNA positivity with respect to duration of jaundice

From: Immunological and molecular epidemiological characteristics of acute and fulminant viral hepatitis A

Duration of Jaundice

  1. aAVH = Acute viral hepatitis; bFHF = Fulminant hepatic failure
  2. There was significant difference (p < 0.05) between final positivity of acute and fulminant hepatitis A.
