Application of the serum biomarker-first algorithm. (A) ELF/TE approach. (B) M2BPGi/TE approach. The expected number of LBs was lower in the M2BPGi/TE approach than in the ELF/TE approach (9.9% [15/152] vs. 13.2% [20/152], P=0.398). The discordance rate in the low-risk group was lower in the ELF/TE approach than in the M2BPGi/TE approach, with no statistical difference (3.9% [5/126] vs. 8.8% [13/147], P=0.118).
