ALB and myocardial ischemia: Metabolic indicators when added to two clinical characteristics (IHD, age > 80 years) significantly improved the prediction of postoperative mortality: AUC increased from 0.591 (for IHD) or 0.637 (for age > 80 years) to 0.803 (if 25(OH)D < 25 mmol/L), to 0.789 (if Albumin < 33 g/L), to 0.742 (if GGT/ALT > 2.5), to 0.729 (if Urea > 7.5 mmol/L) and to 0.725 (if PTH > 6.8 pmol/L).
