Formula
Baveno-HCC score =
−6.404 + 1.975 × (LSM 15–25 kPa) + 3.021 × (LSM >25 kPa) + 1.321 × (platelet count <150 ×10⁹/L) + 0.036 × spleen size (mm) − 0.016 × sum of tumor diameters (mm),
where categorical variables were coded as binary indicators (1=present, 0=absent)
Probability Transformation
Predicted CSPH probability = 1 / [1 + exp(−score)]
Interpretation Cut-offs
- Rule-out CSPH: score ≤ −1.87
- Indeterminate: −1.87 < score < 0.72
- Rule-in CSPH: score ≥ 0.72
