Clinical Usefulness of Procalcitonin and C-Reactive Protein as Outcome Predictors in Critically Ill Patients with Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock - Fig 1

<p>(a) Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for procalcitonin (PCTc) and C-reactive protein (CRPc) clearance predict treatment failure. (b) Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for procalcitonin (PCTc) and C-reactive protein (CRPc) clearance predict 28-day mortality. The test for AUC difference between the two markers had a p-value > 0.2 for both treatment failure and 28-day mortality.
