Comparison of the positive rate of sTim-3 and HA to distinguish hepatitis from hepatitis with liver fibrosis.
| Positive rate |
||||
| Cut off | Controls | Hepatitis | Hepatitis + fibrosis | |
| sTim-3 | 19.45 ng/mL | 0.00% | 21.68% | 66.13% |
| HA | 110 ng/mL | 0.00% | 4.90% | 35.48% |
| sTim-3 or HA | 0.00% | 25.87% | 77.42% | |
The cut off for sTim-3 was determined by the Youden index of Figure 4E, and HA concentration greater than 110 ng/mL was considered positive (commonly used in clinical practice).
