Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: The extent of liver fibrosis predicts long-term outcomes, and hence impacts management and therapy. We developed a non-invasive algorithm to stage fibrosis using non-parametric, machine learning methods designed for predictive modeling, and incorporated an invariant genetic marker of liver fibrosis risk. METHODS: Of 4277 patients with chronic liver disease, 1992 with chronic hepatitis C...
