Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) level and poor neurological outcome following near-hanging injury.
(A) Predictive performance of NSE for the total patient population (AUC, 0.905; 95% CI, 0.841–0.958). (B) Predictive performance of NSE for patients with cardiac arrest (AUC, 0.892; 95% CI, 0.757–0.978). AUC, area under the curve; CI, confidence interval.
