Table 5 Relation between 1-year survival and noninvasive liver fibrosis tests

From: Role of transient elastography in the prediction of de novo recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after radiofrequency ablation: single-center Egyptian study

	Survival at 1 year				t*	P value
	Alive		Died
	Mean	SD	Mean	SD
LS	20.84	8.66	45.00	.00	3.88	<0.001*
CDS	5.96	1.50	7.00	1.41	0.94	0.35
FIB4	3.97	2.67	4.15	1.15	0.09	0.93
API	1.22	1.11	1.42	0.41	0.25	0.81

LS can also predict the 1-year survival where there was a statistically significant correlation between LS and 1-year survival (p value <0.001) with the best cutoff value > 42.75 (Fig. 2)
