Fig. 1 This illustration presents the plots of the predictive ability of physician-investigators (closed square marks), nurses (open circle), and the prognostic model (closed triangles) versus actual observed deaths. The straight line bisecting the graph represents perfect calibration. Journal of Cardiac Failure 2007 13, 8-13DOI: (10.1016/j.cardfail.2006.10.002) Copyright © 2007 Elsevier Inc.

Fig. 2 This illustration presents the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves for physician-investigators (closed square marks), nurses (open circle), and the prognostic model (closed triangles) versus actual observed deaths. The ROC curves of the nurses' predictions is significantly different from those of the physicians and the prognostic model; the method of DeLong et al12 was used in the analysis.
