The ultrasonic and CT imaging revealed that some patients have fatty livers, intrahepatic calcifications, hepatomegaly, gallbladder wall edema and abdominal effusions. Biochemical analysis showed that the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001) and bilirubin (P\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.01) statistically decreased after the drug treatment, but alkaline phosphatase (P\u00a0&amp;gt;0.05) and glutamyl transpeptidase (P&amp;gt;\u00a00.05) did not decrease.
