Diagnostic performances of noninvasive tests for liver fibrosis and cirrhosis.

Advanced fibrosis Severe fibrosis Cirrhosis
AUROC (95% CI) AUROC (95% CI) AUROC (95% CI)
APRI 0.71 (0.68–0.74) 0. 83 (0.80–0.85) 0. 85 (0.82–0.87)
FIB-4 0.67 (0.64–0.71) 0.82 (0.80–0.84) 0.76 (0.73–0.79)
eLIFT 0.66 (0.62–0.69) 0.65 (0.61–0.68) 0.64 (0.61–0.68)
Comparing AUROC
 eLIFT and APRI p = 0.095 p < 0.001 p  = 0.001
 eLIFT and FIB-4 p = 0.612 p < 0.001 p = 0.033
 APRI and FIB-4 p  = 0.03 p = 0.91 p  = 0.005

APRI, aspartate transaminase to platelet ratio index; FIB-4, fibrosis index based on the 4 factors; eLIFT, the easy Liver Fibrosis Test; AUROC, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; CI, confidence interval.
