Table 2 Biomarker accuracy for acute kidney injury detection
| Marker | Area under the curve (95%CI) | Cutoff | Sensitivity (%) (95%CI) | Specificity (%) (95%CI) |
| Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin | 0.91 (0.87-0.95) | > 150 ng/mL | 90 (85-94) | 85 (78-90) |
| Cystatin C | 0.86 (0.81-0.91) | > 1.5 mg/L | 84 (77-89) | 80 (72-86) |
| Renal resistive index | 0.89 (0.83-0.94) | > 0.74 | 82 (74-88) | 88 (81-93) |
| Creatinine | 0.73 (0.66-0.80) | > 1.2 mg/dL | 68 (60-76) | 62 (54-70) |
