Additionally, receiver-operating curve (ROC) analysis of the proposed diagnostic profile showed that the combination of LOXL2 and ETFβ resulted in an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.813, with a cut-off point of 0.824, thus suggesting the favorable positive predictive power of the model and further supporting the use of LOXL2 and ETFβ as possible early predictive DCM biomarkers. The gene discussed is LOXL2; the disease is familial dilated cardiomyopathy.
