3. Figure 2
Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in boys. Shown are the sensitivity and [1-specificity] of ALT in detecting hepatitis B viral infection (A), hepatitis C viral infection (B), and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (C). Plotted along the ROC curves are the ALT thresholds currently utilized by children's hospitals (marked with “x”) and the biologically derived ALT threshold (marked with “o”). The numbers on the ROC curves represent the median and interquartile range of ALT thresholds currently used by children's hospitals, as well as the biologically derived ALT threshold.
