Vs values, blood markers, and splenic volume in the presence of esophageal varices (EVs) in patients with advanced liver fibrosis. Scatter plots of shear wave velocity (Vs) values, FIB-4 index, platelet count, M2BPGi, hyaluronic acid, type IV collagen 7S, and splenic volume in patients without (n = 13) and with (n = 10) esophageal varices (EVs) with advanced liver fibrosis. Bars represent medians for each group; N.S., not significantly different. Each plot shows Vs values, values of each blood marker of liver fibrosis, and spleen volume in individual patients. Each data set was assessed with the Mann–Whitney U test
