Table 4.
AUROC for different volatile organic compounds for classifying patients with NAFLD cirrhosis vs. those with non-cirrhotic NAFLD.
| Volatile organic compounds | AUROC (95% CI) | p value |
|---|---|---|
| Dimethyl sulfide | 0.87 (0.74–1.00) | <0.001 |
| D-limonene | 0.83 (0.68–0.98) | 0.002 |
| Acetone | 0.81 (0.63–0.99) | 0.005 |
Discrimination used for internal model validation - ranking patient with NAFLD cirrhosis was measured by AUROC. AUROC, area under receiver operating characteristic; NAFLD, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
