Non-invasive model for predicting high-risk esophageal varices based on liver and spleen stiffness

Table 7 Comparison of various parameters of each model

	Sensitivity	Specificity	Accuracy, %	Positive predictive value, %	Negative predictive value, %	Cutoff value
LSPS	89.39	62.16	74.30	67.78	86.81	3.12
VRI	74.24	67.57	69.30	67.09	74.66	0.03
AAR	75.76	52.70	57.90	58.78	70.95	1.27
Baveno VI1	98.48	36.49	65.70	57.99	96.42	-
The new model	100.00	82.43	89.30	83.52	100.00	0.27

¹Baveno VI criteria were defined as liver stiffness measurement < 20 kPa and platelet count > 150 × 10⁹ /L.

LSPS: Liver stiffness-spleen diameter to platelet ratio score; VRI: Variceal risk index; AAR: Aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase ratio.
