Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Objectives: Liver cirrhosis (LC) is the end-stage of fibrosis in chronic liver diseases, non-invasive early detection of liver fibrosis (LF) is particularly essential for therapeutic decision. Aberrant glycosylation of glycoproteins has been demonstrated to be closely related to liver abnormalities. Methods: This study was designed to enroll a total of 1,565 participants with LC/LF, chronic hepatitis virus (CHB) and healthy controls. Fibrosis was confirmed by liver biopsy. Using capillary electrophoresis N-glycan fingerprint (NGFP) analysis, we developed a nomogram algorithm (FIB-G) to discriminate LC from non-cirrhotic subjects. Results: The FIB-G demonstrated good diagnostic performances in identifying LC with the area under the curve (AUC) 0.895 (95%CI: 0.857-0.915). Furthermore, the diagnostic efficiencies of FIB-G were superior to that of log (P2/P8), procollagen III N-terminal (PIIINP), type IV collage (IV-C), laminin (LN), hyaluronic acid (HA), aspartate transaminase to platelets ratio index (APRI), and FIB-4 when detecting significant fibrosis (S0-1 vs. S2-4, AUC: 0.787, 95%CI: 0.701-0.873), severe fibrosis (S0-2 vs. S3-4, AUC: 0.844, 95%CI: 0.763-0.924), and LC (S0-3 vs. S4, AUC: 0.773, 95%CI: 0.667-0.880). Besides, changes of FIB-G were associated well with the regression of fibrosis and liver function Child-Pugh classification. Conclusions: FIB-G is an accurate multivariant N-glycomic algorithm for LC prediction and fibrosis progression/regression monitoring. The high throughput feasible NGFP using only 2 μL of serum could help physicians make the more precise non-invasive staging of LF or cirrhosis and reduce the need for invasive liver biopsy.,.
