Albumin-bilirubin score reflects the extent of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis C patients treated with direct-acting antivirals

Table 5 Albumin-bilirubin score’s discriminatory power in comparison with other non-invasive tests for liver fibrosis

	ALBI	APRI score	AST to ALT	FIB-4 index
AUC	0.76	0.76	0.60	0.80
P value	< 0.001	< 0.001	0.005	< 0.001
Sensitivity (%)	60	59	54	65
Specificity (%)	83	83	64	84
95%CI	0.70-0.81	0.699-0.82	0.535-0.681	0.76-0.87

AUC: Area under the curve; CI: Confidence interval; ALBI: Albumin-bilirubin; APRI: Aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index; AST: Aspartate transaminase; ALT: Alanine transaminase; FIB-4: Fibrosis-4 index.
