CXCL10 showed ability in distinguishing CIN from healthy control (AUCCXCL10 = 0.727) (Fig. 3F and Table 2), while SCC-Ag exhibited poor performance in distinguishing CIN from healthy control (AUCSCC-Ag =0.448) (Fig. 3E and Table 2). This evidence concerns the gene CXCL10 and cervical squamous intraepithelial neoplasia.
