Fig. 3 — Prevalence of discordance in fibrosis stage estimated using the median elasticity score from the first 3 VMs and LB according to ALT level in patients with CHB. The prevalence of discordance was significantly higher in patients with ALT >1.5×ULN than in those with ALT ≤1.5×ULN (p<0.001; odds ratio, 5.161; 95% CI, 2.214-12.030). The prevalence of discordance was 9.1% in patients with ALT ≤1.5×ULN and 34.0% in those with ALT >1.5×ULN. VMs, valid measurements; LB, liver biopsy; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; CHB, chronic hepatitis B; ULN, upper limit of normal; CI, confidence interval.
