简要总结
The main objective is to determine the performance of the simple eLIFT blood test for advanced liver fibrosis screening in NAFLD and/or alcoholic patients in primary care.
详细描述
eLIFT, is a new blood fibrosis test specifically dedicated for general practitioners with simple parameters and easy "by head" calculation. Using the recommended cut-offs (eLIFT ≥8), eLIFT sensitivity was 86%. This result position eLIFT an as interesting tool for the screening of advanced liver fibrosis in large populations.
As our preliminary results come from very selected patients, i.e. patients from tertiary centres who underwent a liver biopsy, we now need to evaluate in the real condition of primary care setting whether the use of eLIFT will help general practitioners to screen advanced liver fibrosis in their asymptomatic NAFLD and alcoholic patients.

研究组 & 干预措施
Diagnostic Test: e-LIFT
only one arm because diagnostic study evaluating blood test using elastometry and liver biopsy as reference
干预措施: e-LIFT (Diagnostic Test)
结局指标
主要结局
e-LIFT negative predictive value for the diagnosis of advanced hepatic fibrosis
时间窗: 1 day
The primary outcome of the study is the negative predictive value for the diagnosis of advanced hepatic fibrosis (i.e., the rate of patients who do not actually have advanced hepatic fibrosis when the eLIFT test is \<8)
次要结局
- sensibility of the eLIFT test(1 day)
- specificity and positive predictive value of the eLIFT test(1 day)
- rate of liver complications among patients with an eLIFT test ≥ 8(1 day)
- performance of e-LIFT test in subgroup analysis(1 day)
