Figure 1 Significant difference between resistin level in acute biliary pancreatitis patients and control subjects (P = 0.
000).
Figure 2 Box plot graph delineates the difference variation between acute pancreatitis patients (mild/severe) and control group.
Figure 3 Receiver-operator curve and area under the curve.
A: Receiver-operator curve (ROC) and area under the curve (AUC) delineate sensitivity and specificity of serum resistin concentration (day of admission), AUC > 97%, P-value < 0.0001; B: ROC and AUC of serum resistin value on admission. Cutoff value: 15 ng/mL and positive predictive value: 97%.
