Urinary biomarker test characteristics based on optimal cut-off value for the 2-hour post-CPB t point for detection of AKI
| Predictor variable | Optimal cut-off point * | Sensitivity (%) | Specificity (%) | Positive predictive value (%) | Negative predictive value (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| KIM-1 (ng/mg) | 0.42 | 92 | 58 | 24 | 98 |
| NAG (mU/mg) | 66 | 50 | 79 | 26 | 91 |
| NGAL (ng/mg) | 166 | 67 | 11 | 15 | 90 |
| IL-18 (pg/mg) | 92 | 75 | 66 | 25 | 95 |
| Cystatin C (ng/mg) | 192 | 42 | 86 | 31 | 91 |
| α-1 microglobulin (μg/mg) | 115 | 75 | 58 | 21 | 94 |
The optimal cut-off point value was generated using the Youden index; CPB denotes cardiopulmonary bypass
