Serum Tenascin-C and Alarin Levels Are Associated with Cardiovascular Diseases in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Figure 3

ROC curves for TNC and alarin in diabetics. The optimal cutoff point of TNC for CVD diagnosis in our study was >134.05 pg/mL (sensitivity 69.47%, specificity 61.29%). The best cutoff point of alarin was >142.69 pg/mL (sensitivity 38.95%, specificity 90.97%). AUC, area under the curve; CVD, cardiovascular diseases; ROC, receiver operating characteristic; TNC, tenascin-C.
