Résumé
When comparing two analytical results for the same analyte, the clinicians may benefit from knowing the reference change values (RCVs) of the analyte. For Fibrosis-4 Index (FIB-4), a noninvasive test used for assessing the risk of liver fibrosis, no RCVs have been published for non-cirrhotic individuals. Therefore, we estimated RCVs for adults, using retrospectively collected data from outpatients with AST, ALT, and thrombocytes within the respective reference intervals. FIB-4 was calculated as (age × AST)/(thrombocytes × ALT
