Predictive Value of Galectin-3 and Brachial-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity for Coronary Artery Calcification in Coronary Arteriography Patients

Figure 3

Analysis of the diagnostic value of galectin-3 and BaPWV for CAC with ROC curve. (a) ROC plot of galectin-3 level predicting CAC. The AUC was 0.916. When the cut-off value of galectin-3 was ≥5.90 ng/ml, the sensitivity and specificity were 83.5% and 85.5%, respectively, for predicting CAC. (b) ROC plot of BaPWV level predicting CAC. The AUC was 0.646. When the cut-off value of BaPWV was ≥1909 m/s, the sensitivity and specificity were 61.8% and 69.6%, respectively, for predicting CAC.
