    Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of the Glasgow Aneurysm Score as a predictor of 30-day mortality after (A) open repair (OR) and (B) endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). The dots represent the cutoff values. AUC, Area under the ROC curve (95% confidence interval). Note that the 95% confidence intervals should be cautiously interpreted because they are preferably based on larger sample size.13
