Receiver-operating characteristic curves in the total cohort for various biomarker cutoff levels. Receiver-operating characteristic curves in the total cohort for cutoff levels of leukocytes, C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), cell-free DNA (cf-DNA) and eosinophils and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores in differentiating between the presence and absence of sepsis at admission. Areas under the receiver-operating characteristic curves: leukocytes, 0.55 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.45 to 0.64); CRP, 0.69 (95% CI, 0.59 to 0.79); PCT, 0.87 (95% CI, 0.81 to 0.94); cf-DNA, 0.51 (95% CI, 0.61 to 0.71); eosinophils, 0.54 (95% CI, 0.44 to 0.65); SOFA score, 0.74 (95% CI, 0.64 to 0.83); and APACHE II score, 0.62 (95% CI, 0.51 to 0.73).
