Receiver operating characteristic curve values of baseline parenclitic indexes to predict 6-month outcome
end-stage liver disease
The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves (AUC), cutoffs, and the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and Brier scores of these cutoffs are presented in Table Area on the ROC curves, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and Brier score of parenclitic indexes in combination with MELD compared with MELD aloneδ, deviation along an axis; Alb, serum albumin; AUC, area under the curve; Bil, total bilirubin; CRP, C-reactive protein; HR, heart rate; INR, international normalized ratio; MELD, model for end-stage liver disease; Na, serum sodium; NPV, negative predictive value; PPV, positive predictive value; WCC, white cell count.Measure of prognostic improvement of MELD due to the addition of parenclitic indexesδ, deviation along an axis; Alb, serum albumin; Bil, total bilirubin; CRP, C-reactive protein; IDI, integrated discrimination improvement; INR, international normalized ratio; MELD, model for end-stage liver disease; Na, serum sodium; NRI, net reclassification indexes; WCC, white cell count.
