uIL‐6/uCr (pg/mg) uGGT/uCr (U/g) uHSP/uCr (ng/mg)
AUROC (95% CI) 0.78 (0.65‐0.91) 0.68 (0.55‐0.81) 0.67 (0.51‐0.83)
Optimal cutoff value a (sensitivity/specificity) 118 (79%/73%) 121 (79%/54%) 3.8 (79%/54%)
Additional cutoffs (sensitivity/specificity) 30 (93%/32%) 90 (93%/41%) 1.4 (93%/26%)
204 (64%/82%) 171 (57%/73%) 10.1 (50%/79%)
1478 (29%/96%) 281 (21%/85%) 32.3 (29%/92%)

Abbreviations: AUROC, area under the receiver operator characteristic curve; CI, confidence interval; GGT, gamma‐glutamyl transpeptidase; HSP, heat shock protein; IL, interleukin; u, urinary.

a

The maximal point of the Youden index (Sen‐[1‐Spec]) was used as the optimal cutoff value.
