From: Presepsin is a potent biomarker for diagnosing skin wound infection in hemodialysis patients compared to white blood cell count, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, and soluble CD14

Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of presepsin and hsCRP for discriminating the localized infection group (N = 29) and the no infection group (N = 20). When the cut-off value of presepsin and hsCRP were set at 2080 pg/mL and 1.07 mg/dL, respectively, the sensitivity was 0.86 and 0.69, and the specificity was 0.80 and 0.70, respectively. The AUC was calculated as 0.874 for presepsin and 0.696 for hsCRP, and the AUC for presepsin was significantly higher than that for hsCRP (P = 0.0348)
