An evaluation of clinical stability criteria to predict hospital course in community-acquired pneumonia A.R. Akram, J.D. Chalmers, J.K. Taylor, J. Rutherford, A. Singanayagam, A.T. Hill Clinical Microbiology and Infection Volume 19, Issue 12, Pages 1174-1180 (December 2013) DOI: 10.1111/1469-0691.12173 Copyright © 2013 European Society of Clinical Infectious Diseases Terms and Conditions

Fig. 1 Discriminatory ability of stability criteria according to day of admission. Where indices are similar, overlapping points have been offset. Note that there are no data for ATS criteria on day 0 as these criteria cannot be met on day 0. C-reactive protein data on day 0 are for those patients in whom CRP was not elevated (<10 mg/L) on admission.
