The corresponding AUC values for IL-10 and decompensated liver cirrhosis were 0.730 (95% CI 0.589–0.870) and 0.644 (95% CI 0.490–0.798) (Fig. 1C, D), indicating that these two laboratory parameters have significant value in predicting the progression of DM to DC. This evidence concerns the gene IL10 and cirrhosis of liver.
