Fig 1 (A) Postoperative procalcitonin (PCT) levels and (B) receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of the prognostic accuracy of PCT. Comparison of postoperative serum PCT levels in patients with NOMI versus a non-NOMI group. Samples were taken in the afternoon the day before and during the morning after surgery. Short dash = mean values of PCT. Solid dash = median values of PCT. Probability values of less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
