Title: Noninvasive models for the prediction of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B
Version: 1 Date: 05 Apr 2024
Reviewer:  Jean-Pierre Zarski
Reviewer's report:
This second version of the manuscript has been greatly improved and takes account of the
comments made by the 2 reviewers by providing additions and clarifications.
However, it seems to me that in the discussion it should be said that the results of the AUROCs
are somewhat disappointing and in any case inferior to those of the Fibroscan, which is the
reference test proposed by the learned societies, and also, in relation to the literature, to those of
the fibrotest or the fibrometer, for example. Finally, it should be emphasised that there are no
clear results in cirrhotic patients, where the results of AUROCs are usually the best.
