Overview

Findings indicate that sex does not influence the accuracy of tests for portal hypertension in individuals with cACLD, suggesting equal reliability.

Key Points

  • To determine if sex affects the performance of non-invasive tests and algorithms for diagnosing clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH).
  • Evaluated individual non-invasive tests for CSPH diagnosis
  • Utilized Baveno VII-based algorithms for accuracy assessment
  • Compared results between males and females
  • Non-invasive tests showed comparable accuracy for diagnosing CSPH in both sexes
  • Baveno VII-based algorithms similarly performed for prognostication regardless of sex
