Predictive value of C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, and total bilirubin levels for pancreatic fistula after gastrectomy for gastric cancer

Table 5 The predictive value of serum C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, and total bilirubin levels for post-surgical pancreatic fistula on day 1 post-surgery

Indicators	Critical value	AUC	95%CI	P value	Sensitivity	Specificity
Serum PCT level on day 1 post-surgery	0.84	0.803	0.718-0.889	0.000	74.2	83.5
Serum CRP level on day 1 post-surgery	133.83	0.792	0.697-0.887	0.000	67.7	87.3
Serum TBil level on day 1 post-surgery	20.16	0.683	0.581-0.785	0.002	64.5	63.8
Combination of the three indices		0.857	0.784-0.929	0.000	87.1	76.4

CRP: C-reactive protein; PCT: Procalcitonin; TBil: Total bilirubin; AUC: Area under the curve; CI: Confidence interval.
