Table 2. Comparison of liver stiffness value for liver fibrosis staging (median, range).

Liver fibrosis stage Number of animals (n) LSV (kPa, median, range)
F0 20 3.9 (1.9–8.5)
F1 10 5.0 (2.4–8.9)
F2 17 7.9* (5.2–12.3)
F3 12 12.8* (5.9–16.8)
F4 11 16.6* (9.8–29.5)
Summary 70 P<0.0001

The results of Kruskal-Wallis test showed that P<0.0001 in liver stiffness value among different liver fibrotic stage. *P<0.05 compared with F0 stage; P<0.05 compared with F1 stage. LSV, liver stiffness value.
