Fig. 2From: Association between inflammation and skeletal muscle proteolysis, skeletal mass and strength in elderly heart failure patients and their prognostic implicationsa Receiver operating characteristics curve. The cutoff points for the dichotomization (0.499) were determined by maximizing the sensitivity and specificity of the receiver-operating characteristics curve. b Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated a significantly higher event rate in patients classified as a high-risk group by a random forest model (hazard ratio 22.3, log-rank test, p < 0.0001)Back to article page
