From: Usefulness of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide and C-reactive protein to predict ICU mortality in unselected medical ICU patients: a prospective, observational study

Figure 2

ROC curves for combination of two or three variables among CRP, NT-proBNP and APACHE-II score. Combination of CRP or NT-proBNP or both with APACHE-II score did not significantly increase AUC with regard to perdition of ICU mortality (all P > 0.05). Combination of CRP and NT-proBNP was inferior to APACHE-II score alone for predicting ICU mortality (P < 0.01).
