liver transplant
This appears in a report of a patient's liver transplant surgery. The line in the report says:
"Biopsia [date]: *ANI elevada*, proliferación ductular con fibrosis F2, no rechazo."
I only find this once in the document, so no other context to compare it with. This is some sort of reading, but I don't know what the letters stand for. What is this in Spanish, and how do we say it in English?
Thanks for your help.

"activity" (in this context)
At least in Portuguese, ANI stands for "atividade necro-inflamatória", a sort of expanded translation of the "activity" component of the METAVIR score (see http://hepatitis.about.com/od/diagnosis/a/Metavir.htm for instance). It's usually graded as mild/moderate/severe, though, not low/elevated or "marked" etc.
I translated a bunch of articles on liver transplantation last month and saw this quite often, but as I always say, your mileage may vary...

A "convenience" reference:
Considerou-se como resposta histológica a redução, entre a primeira e a segunda biopsias, de dois pontos na actividade necro-inflamatória (ANI) e de um grau na fibrose.

A liver biopsy sample is useful in this instance in allowing an assessment of the Hepatitis Activity Index (a necroinflammatory/fibrosis scoring system)...

Fibrosis Stages and Necroinflammatory Activity Grades
Activity (necroinflammation) and fibrosis are two major histologic features of chronic hepatitis C included in different proposed classifications. One of the few validated scoring systems is called the METAVIR scoring system. This system assesses histologic lesions in chronic hepatitis C using two separate scores, one for necroinflammatory grade (A for activity) and another for the stage of fibrosis (F). These scores are defined as follows... A0, no histologic necroinflammatory activity; A1, minimal activity, A2, moderate activity, A3, severe activity.
