The receiver operating curves for the three logistic regression models for one-year mortality prediction in heart failure, developed in this paper. The three models use standard clinical variables only (no cytokines, C-statistic of 0.73), standard variables and baseline cytokines only (C-statistic of 0.74), and standard variables and serial cytokine measurements at baseline, 8, 16 and 24 weeks (C-statistic of 0.81).
