Table 3. AUC Analysis of the Predictive Value of Various Parameters for CAS.
| CVD risk estimators | Predictive value of the presence of CAS (≥20%) | Predictive value of significant CAS (≥50%) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AUC | 95% CI | P value | AUC | 95% CI | P value | |
| Maximal baPWV | 0.672 | 0.554–0.785 | 0.010 | 0.605 | 0.483–0.728 | 0.104 |
| UKPDS risk engine | 0.777 | 0.675–0.878 | <0.001 | 0.725 | 0.616–0.834 | 0.001 |
| ACC/AHA risk estimator | 0.763 | 0.660–0.866 | <0.001 | 0.674 | 0.558–0.791 | 0.007 |
| Framingham risk calculator | 0.736 | 0.629–0.843 | <0.001 | 0.701 | 0.588–0.814 | 0.002 |
P values <0.05 were considered to be indicate significance.
AUC, area under the curve; CAS, coronary artery stenosis; CVD, cardiovascular disease; CI, confidence interval; baPWV, brachial ankle pulse wave velocity; UKPDS, United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study; ACC/AHA, American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association.
