Accuracy of multi-marker models in the diagnosis of TB disease. Receiver operator characteristics (ROC) curve showing the accuracy of the most accurate four-marker biosignature (IFN-γnil + TGF-αnil + IL-1raAg-nil + MIP-1βAg-nil) in the diagnosis of TB disease regardless of HIV infection status when all host markers evaluated were considered (251 study participants) (A), frequency of analytes in the top 20 general discriminant analysis (GDA) models that most accurately classified study participants as TB disease or ORD irrespective of HIV status when all host markers evaluated were considered (B), ROC curve showing the accuracy of the most accurate five-marker biosignature (IFN-γnil + MIP-1βnil + TGF-αnil + TGF-αAg-nil + VEGFAg-nil) in the diagnosis of TB disease regardless of HIV status when analysis was done only on the host markers that were evaluated on all study participants (i.e., excluding IL-1ra, IFN-α2 and TNF-α) (C), and frequency of analytes in the top 20 GDA models that most accurately diagnosed TB disease regardless of HIV status when analysis was done only on the host markers that were evaluated on all study participants (D). The bar graphs (B,D) indicate the frequency of analytes in the most accurate GDA models.
