a

AUCs were calculated using total fluxes recorded for the surviving and nonsurviving animals described in the legend to Fig. 6.

b

CI, confidence interval.

c

Sensitivity and specificity parameters were obtained from generated ROC curves and are shown for maximized combined sensitivity and specificity. n = 200.

d

Data for the days when the combined sensitivity and specificity reached maximum for each organ are in bold type.
