Figure 2 Receiver operating characteristic curve. Receiver operating characteristic curve for predicting cellulitis in patients randomized to dermatology consultation (n = 40). AUC, area under the curve. Journal of Investigative Dermatology 2018 138, 520-526DOI: (10.1016/j.jid.2017.09.022) Copyright © 2017 The Authors Terms and Conditions
Figure 3 Model 1: predicting cellulitis based on temperature differences. Predictive model. Using logistic regression, we determined the probability of cellulitis based on temperature difference between affected and unaffected skin. Red circles indicate cellulitis patients, and green circles indicate pseudocellulitis patients; 50% threshold corresponds to 0.47°C.
