Table 5.

Predictors of Discordance in Fibrosis Stage Estimated by the First 3 VMs and Liver Biopsy

graphic file with name ymj-53-337-i005.jpg

VMs, valid measurements; HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval; BMI, body mass index; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; LB, liver biopsy.

Variables are expressed as the mean±SD or n (%).

Non-discordance* indicates that fibrosis stage estimations using the first 3 VMs and LB agree. If not, the estimations are categorized as discordant.
