Table 2.

The diagnostic performance of the HGS to predict low SMI by CT (n = 50)

HSG cut-offs Sensitivity (%) Specificity (%) NPV (%) PPV (%)
JSH* 88.2 100 98.7 100
EWGSOP** 94.1 81.2 99.2 82.5

JSH*, Japan Society of Hepatology (HGS < 26 kg for male, < 18 for female); EWGOSP**, European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (HGS < 30 kg for male, < 20 kg for female); NPV, negative predictive value; PPV, positive predictive value. (PPV and NPV were calculated based on 10% of prevalence of sarcopenia)
