Table 6. The cut-offs of APRI and FIB-4 for significant fibrosis and cirrhosis in patients < 30 years.

Score Classification Cut-offs Sensitivity, % Specificity,% PPV,% NPV, %
APRI Significant fibrosis 0.2* 94 15 21 91
1.0** 18 91 31 83
Cirrhosis 0.3* 91 16 5 98
1.2** 10 90 4 96
FIB-4 Significant fibrosis 0.5* 90 15 20 86
1.2** 20 90 32 83
Cirrhosis 0.8* 91 14 5 97
1.4** 10 92 5 96

APRI, aspartate transaminase to platelet ratio index; FIB-4, fibrosis index based on the 4 factors; PPV, positive predictive value; NPV, negative predictive value; Cut-offs* were established by obtaining a sensitivity of at least 90%; Cut-offs** were established by obtaining a specificity of at least 90%.
