ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND

AIM:

LIVERSTAT is an artificial intelligence-based noninvasive test devised to screen for and provide risk stratification for metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) by using simple blood biomarkers and anthropometric measurements. We aimed to study LIVERSTAT in patients with MAFLD and to explore its role for the diagnosis of advanced fibrosis.

METHODS:

This is a retrospective study of data from MAFLD patients who underwent a liver biopsy. Patients with type 2 diabetes who underwent transient elastography and had liver stiffness measurement (LSM) < 5 kPa were included as patients with no fibrosis. Among these patients, controlled attenuation parameter <248 dB/m was considered as no steatosis. The LIVERSTAT results were generated based on a proprietary algorithm, blinded to the histological and LSM data.

RESULTS:

The data for 350 patients were analyzed (mean age 53 years, 45% male, advanced fibrosis 22%). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and misclassification rate of LIVERSTAT to diagnose advanced fibrosis were 90%, 50%, 30%, 95%, and 42%, respectively. The corresponding rates for Fibrosis-4 score (FIB4) were 56%, 83%, 44%, 89%, and 22%, respectively. When LSM was used as a second test, the corresponding rates for LIVERSTAT were 60%, 97%, 76%, 94%, and 8%, respectively, while the corresponding rates for FIB4 were 38%, 99%, 83%, 89%, and 11%, respectively.

CONCLUSION:

LIVERSTAT had a higher negative predictive value compared with FIB4 and a lower misclassification rate compared with FIB4 when used in a two-step approach in combination with LSM for the diagnosis of advanced fibrosis.
