One hundred twenty-five of 221 (56.6%) patients met an APP score 0.24 with a 4.8% HRV miss rate. In the validation cohort, 59 of 113 (51.3%) patients met the APP score 0.24 with a 1.7% HRV miss rate. APP score is a potential model for safely screening HRV and sparing EGDs in patients with HBV-related cACLD. APP score is a
