Fig. 2From: A rapid, non-invasive tool for periodontitis screening in a medical care settingROC curves of the prediction models. The Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves for each prediction model. The diagonal line represents the situation where the model doesn’t makes decisions better than “random” (i.e. flipping a coin), and therefore has no discriminative value. In each graph, the area under the ROC curve (AUROCC) is given, which is a measure for the discriminative performance of the model. Panel (a) represents the three models predicting total periodontitis (moderate and severe combined). The lower panel (b) shows the models predicting severe periodontitis. Model 1: self-reported oral health (SROH) questionnaire, demographics and biomarkers. Model 2: SROH questionnaire and demographics. Model 3: SROH questionnaire onlyBack to article page
