Figure 3 The receiver-operating characteristic curve illustrates the sensitivity and specificity of endothelium-dependent flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) in discriminating patients who reached the combined end point from survivors (FMD 6.8%; sensitivity 63%, specificity 67%). The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.76.
