    Receiver-operator curve for the prediction of intraamniotic infection

    The red solid line shows the performance of alpha-1-acid glycoprotein alone; the black dotted line shows the performance of alpha-1-acid glycoprotein in combination with insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 and fatty acid binding protein; and the green broken line shows the performance of alpha-1-acid glycoprotein in combination with insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1, calgranulin C, and cystatin A.
