Abstract
RESULTS: The diagnostic values of FibrometerA and Hepascore did not differ from that of FibroTest for advanced fibrosis (all AUROCs=0.83±0.03) and cirrhosis (FibroTest and FibrometerA =0.94±0.02, Hepascore=0.92±0.02), and were significantly greater than those of non-patented biomarkers (APRI, Forns, FIB4; P<0.01). In multivariate analysis the most significant was FibroTest (P=0.001), without independent diagnostic value for FibrometerA (P=0.19), and Hepascore (P=0.40). The prognostic values of FibroTest (AUROC for survival or non liver disease-related death =0.79±0.04), FibrometerA (0.80±0.04), Hepascore (0.78±0.04), did not differ from that of biopsy fibrosis staging (0.77±0.04). In multivariate analysis the most significant were FibroTest (P=0.004) and biopsy (P=0.03), without independent prognostic values for FibrometerA (P=0.41) and Hepascore (P=0.28).
