Table 12 Cause-specific hepatitis delta virus hazard ratio by follow-up interval (split at 1 year)
Follow-up interval
Waiting-list death, csHR (95%CI)
Transplantation, csHR (95%CI)
< 1 year1.81 (1.05-3.14)1.81 (1.11-2.97)
≥ 1 year2.16 (1.35-3.44)4.95 (2.13-11.50)
All four estimates are significant (P < 0.05). The cause-specific hazard of death for hepatitis delta virus does not attenuate (1.81 to 2.16), whereas that for transplantation rises sharply after one year (1.81 to 4.95). This explains the hepatitis delta virus × time interaction. csHR: Cause-specific hazard ratio.
