Overall, the results of the present study showed that CVA has a good accuracy in discriminating between two groups of individuals with slight and moderate-to-severe FHP. It can be valuable in correctly identifying the slight FHP and screening the moderate and severe grades of the FHP. Researchers and clinicians can also use the optimal cutoff point for the CVA obtained in this study to accurately quantify and classify the severity of the FHP.
