Figure 1 Receiving operating characteristic curve for discriminating mild fibrosis. At cut off value: -0.31 or more negative: AUC 0.88, 95%CI: 0.84 -0.91, sensitivity 67.2%, specificity 6.3%, PPV 83.6%, NPV 69.5%, PLR 4.9 and NLR 0.38. AUC: Area under the curve; PPV: Positive predictive value; NPV: Negative predictive value; PLR: Positive likelihood ratio; NLR: Negative likelihood ratio; ROC: Receiving operating characteristic.
