Figure 3. Discriminatory ability for composite cardiovascular events of risk alleles and clinical risk factors in non-diabetic individuals.

Figure 3

ROC Curves for cardiovascular events in the MASS-II population. Observe an increased area under ROC curves (AUC or C statistic) after addition of information of combined risk alleles into clinical model for cardiovascular events. (*) Asymptotic significance: P value<0.00001. P values for comparisons between clinical model and mixed model (clinical and genetic model)  = 0.03.
