b Accuracy of the model based on the cross-validated score and the fibrosis stage.
Only 2 patients with liver fibrosis stage 2 were incorrectly classified.
All our patients have the same hepatic fibrosis stage.
The AFP level was above 8 at the early time point for the participants 1 (fibrosis stage 4) and 3 (fibrosis stage 1) and at the late time point for the participant 3 (fibrosis stage 3).
The AST/ALT ratio was slightly above 1 at the early time point for the participant 4 (fibrosis stage 0) and at the late time point for the participants 3 (fibrosis stage 3), 4 (fibrosis stage 0 1) and 8 (fibrosis stage 1).
All the obese patients have the same hepatic fibrosis stage (F1).
As show in Table 7, none of these SNPs correlated with the baseline viral load and fibrosis stage.
However, for clinicians the advantage of FT is to have a consistent prognostic value from early fibrosis stage to cirrhosis.
Fibrosis was scored on a five-point scale: stage 0 = no fibrosis; stage 1 = portal fibrosis; stage 2 = periportal fibrosis; stage 3 = septal fibrosis; stage 4 = cirrhosis.
Both scoring systems generate a numeric score for staging fibrosis: stage 1 (perisinusoidal fibrosis); stage 2 (portal periportal fibrosis); stage 3 (bridging fibrosis); and stage 4 (cirrhosis).
JHC performed the classification of liver fibrosis stage.
