Figure 2.

ROC analysis for the prediction of shunt-dependent hydrocephalus demonstrated that monocyte count exhibits an acceptable area under the curve (AUC = 0.737, 95% CI: 0.601–0.872, p < 0.001). The best predictive cutoff value to discriminate between successful EVD weaning and shunt-dependent hydrocephalus was identified at a monocyte count ≥0.80 × 10³/uL with a sensitivity and specificity of 81.25% and 66.93%, respectively. The optimal cutoff value of monocyte count on admission is depicted by the red triangle.
