*A MU model uses one SBM as the single predictor in the logistical model and the MM1 uses all listed predictors in the model.
†p Value is used to compare AUCs between a MU model and MM1 model using non-parametric Mann-Whitney U tests.
‡The cut-off is corresponded to a ‘best’ pair of sensitivity and specificity which the average is the largest among all possible pairs on the receiver operating characteristic curve.
§The value represents a cut-off of propensity score from the multivariate logistical model MM1. The propensity score in this model is calculated in two steps. In step 1, a raw score or r-score is calculated using the r-score=0.62×S100A8+15+1.7×S100B−0.9×NGAL +3.4×NR2+1.8×Ribosomal-P+0.8×Ds-DNA +0.02. In the next step, the r-score is converted into the propensity score or p-score using p-score=100×exp(r-score)/(1+exp(r-score)).
aP-AB, antiribosomal P antibodies; AUC, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; NGAL, neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin; aNR2-AB, antibodies to NR2 glutamate receptor.
