Eosinopenia as a Prognostic Marker in Patients with Peritonitis

Table 5

Prognostic accuracy of different parameters.

Parameter	JPS	CRP	AEC
Cut-off value	>8	>7.4	<45
Sensitivity % (95% CI)	77 (46.1–94.9%)	92.3 (63.9–99.8%)	92.3 (63.9–99.8%)
Specificity % (95% CI)	85.1 (76–92%)	79 (68.4–87.2%)	92.5 (91.3–99.7%)
Predictive value of positive test %	55	41	85
Predictive value of negative test %	95	98	99
Area under ROC (95% CI)	0.86 (0.79–0.96)^*	0.93 (0.89–1.0)^*	0.96 (0.94–1.0)^*

^∗𝑃<0.0001.
Note: sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values were calculated for the cutoff, which represented the best discrimination as derived from the ROC curves.
AEC (cells/cmm): absolute eosinophil count.
CRP (mg/dL): C-reactive protein.
JPS: Jabalpur prognostic score.
