Area under the ROC (AUROC) curve analysis revealed that the TET3 level (AUROC = 0.863; 95% CI 0.804–0.909; P < 0.0001) for predicting the risk of liver fibrosis was higher than the FIB-4 index (AUROC = 0.813; 95% CI 0.749–0.867; P < 0.0001), Fig. 3A, Table 4. Here, TET3 is linked to Hepatic fibrosis.
