Table 3.

Sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, and likelihood ratios of TC and ACC for predicting progression to severe acute pancreatitis.

Factor S (%) Sp (%) PPV (%) NPV (%) LR+ LR−
Total calcium (≤8.2 mg/dl) 96.0 54.50 49.0 96.8 2.11 0.07
Albumin-corrected calcium (≤7.72 mg/dl) 88.0 69.10 56.4 92.7 2.85 0.17

Odds ratio (OR) for patients with calcium value ≤ 8.2 mg/dl is found to be 28.8 (p value = 0.01) (95% CI: 3.6–228.1) and OR for patients with ACC value ≤ 7.72 mg/dl is found to be 16.4 (p value = 0.001) (95% CI: 4.3–62.3).
