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
