Proton nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabonomic models for non-invasive diagnosis of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis C: Optimizing the classification of intermediate fibrosis

Figure 2 Comparison of performance of the linear discriminant analysis metabonomic models, aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index and fibrosis index based on four factors, in 69 chronic hepatitis C patients from Pernambuco/Brazil. A and C: Performance of metabonomic models (MM) and APRI to predict SF and C; B: Performance of MM and FIB-4 to predict advanced fibrosis. APRI: Aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index; FIB-4: Fibrosis index based on four factors.
