Note that the overall Obuchowski measure is not equivalent to an usual area under the ROC curve as weighted according to the distance between stages/grades.

The overall mean (SE) accuracy of FibroTest (Obuchowski measure) was not significantly greater than that of ALT, Z = −0.3 P = 0.77.

The overall accuracy of SteatoTest was significantly greater than that of ALT, Z = 5.2 P<0.0001.

The overall mean accuracy of Actitest (Obuchowski measure) was significantly greater than that of ALT, Z = 4.6 P<0.0001.
