3. Figure 2
Liver copper content (geometric mean and 95% CI) in control subjects, in patients with non-WD liver disease, and WD. P values were calculated by an unpaired, two-sided Student t test; all other patient groups were also different from patients with WD (P < .0001). normal, patients without histologic evidence of liver disease. Disease control subjects: CHC, chronic hepatitis C; various, patients with various non-WD chronic liver diseases.

ROC curve of hepatic copper content for diagnosis of WD (area under the curve, 0.988; 95% CI, 0.979–0.996). Diagnosis of WD was made by using the WD score developed by the Working Party at the 8th International Meeting on WD and Menkes disease Comparison of 114 WD patients with 219 disease control subjects.
