  1. Overview and prognostic performance of the ANN models during the first three days after ICU admission. In level A, we used all available data from the TTM-trial, in level B, we added clinically accessible biomarkers, and for level C we added research-grade biomarkers as well. The prognostic performance is displayed as the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) and using by a confusion matrix. Note the threshold for the confusion matrix was based on the threshold for 100% specificity in the training set. TN, true negative; TP, true positive; FN, false negative; TP, true positive
