Table 4.

Relationship between the fibrosis-4 test, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease fibrosis score, and the Fibrometer scores for the three risk classes (low, intermediate, and high) of the fibrosis-4 test score

Tests FIB-4
FIB-4 Low risk of fibrosis
<1.3 (<65 years)
<2 (≥65 years)
FIB-4 intermediate risk of fibrosis
≥1.3 to ≤2.67 (<65 years)
≥2 to ≤2.67 (≥65 years)
FIB-4 high risk of fibrosis
>2.67
P valuea
NFS significant fibrosis (≥−1.455 in patients <65 years) (≥0.12 in patients ≥65 years) 144/1405 (10%) 125/295 (42%) 21/28 (75%) <0.001
Fibrometer
Significant Fibrosis
71/1369 (5%) 46/290 (16%) 15/28 (54%) <0.001
