A multivariate Cox regression model was used to explore the independent factors affecting viral clearance. The time of viral clearance was set as the TIME variable, viral clearance (0 = no, 1 = yes) was set as the status, and the variables that were significant (P < 0.10) in the univariate Cox analysis or were professionally significant (including age, and whether underlying diseases were present or not) were set as independent variable
