What the experts said
The study was a retrospective cohort study conducted in China
The study included 329 patients with biliary atresia
40 of the 329 patients had low MMP-7 levels
Patients with low MMP-7 had significantly lower 3-month jaundice clearance
Patients with low MMP-7 had significantly lower 6-month jaundice clearance
Patients with low MMP-7 had significantly lower 1-year native liver survival
Measuring MMP-7 can help with prognosis in biliary atresia patients
MMP-7 measurement may in the future help with treatment of biliary atresia patients
