Figure 3 Receiver operating characteristic curve of fecal hemoglobin concentrations for predicting complete mucosal healing.
A cutoff value of 100 ng/mL differentiated between patients with or without complete mucosal healing with the following values: 0.94 sensitivity, 0.76 specificity, 0.79 PPV, 0.93 NPV, and 0.88 accuracy. The corresponding area under the curve was 0.88.
