Table 4

The predictive value of noninvasive serological hepatic fibrosis scoring system in cirrhosis combined with severe oesophageal varices.

indicator	AUC	Cut-off	sensitivity	specificity	PPV	NPV
APRI	0.729	1.4	0.939	0.600	0.640	0.963
AAR	0.648	1.3	0.394	0.933	0.667	0.661
FIB-4	0.673	113.4	0.939	0.533	0.588	0.885
S index	0.695	0.27	0.861	0.467	0.545	0.864

APRI: aspartate aminotransferase and platelet ratio; FIB-4: fibrosis index based on factor-4; AUC: area under the curve; PPV: positive predictive value; NPV: negative predictive value.
