Umbilical Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin Level as an Early Predictor of Acute Kidney Injury in Neonates with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome

Figure 2

Receiver-operating-characteristic curve is shown for NGAL cord blood concentrations in relation to AKI. Cut-off value for umbilical NGAL 66 ng/dL resulting in a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 89.5%. Area under ROC curve, AUC = 0.92 (95% CI: 0.76–0.98; ); likelihood ratios, +LR = 7.6 (95% CI: 2.0–29.2); −LR = 0.22 (95% CI: 0.06–0.8).
