We present an overview of the studies replicated in TRIBE, including whether the paper reported the estimated combination, the biomarkers involved in the combination, the reported AUC, and the AUC in TRIBE. For the AUC in TRIBE, we considered the apparent, center-adjusted, optimism-corrected, and center-adjusted and optimism-corrected AUCs for those combinations re-estimated in TRIBE. The optimism-corrected AUC adjusts for resubstitution bias. For the combinations provided in the article, we considered the apparent and center-adjusted AUCs. The 95% confidence intervals in TRIBE were estimated by bootstrapping. Abbreviations: AUC – area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; uKIM1 – urine kidney injury marker-1; uNGAL – urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin; CuNGAL – corrected (for urine creatinine) urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin; pNGAL – serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin; uIL18 – urine interleukin 18; sCr – serum creatinine; uLFABP – urine liver-type fatty acid binding protein; CuLFABP – corrected (for urine creatinine) urine liver-type fatty acid binding protein; CI – confidence interval.
