Fig. 2From: Elevated C-reactive protein levels at ICU discharge as a predictor of ICU outcome: a retrospective cohort studyROC curves of CRP concentrations at ICU discharge alone, CRP group combined with other covariates (model 1) and this model without CRP group (model 2), to discriminate between good outcome and adverse outcome after ICU discharge. CRP value at ICU discharge: area under the ROC curve: 0.58, 95 % CI 0.54–0.63; p = 0.002. Model 1: area under the ROC curve: 0.66, 95 % CI 0.61–0.71; p < 0.001. Model 2: area under the ROC curve: 0.65, 95 % CI 0.60–0.70; p < 0.001.
