ROC curves of serum BDG in different cohorts and subgroups. (A) Comparison of serum BDG between PJP and P. jirovecii-colonized patients. (B) ROC curves of serum BDG based on the Derivation cohort, Validation cohort and the total cohort. (C) ROC curves of serum BDG based on subjects aged ≤ 60 years and > 60 years. (D) ROC curves of serum BDG based on subjects with comorbidities of infectious diseases, solid cancer, autoimmune or inflammatory disorders, hematologic malignancies, lung cancer, ILD, or nephrotic diseases. * Patients with lung cancer were excluded from the solid tumor subgroup. The p-values were calculated using Mann-Whitney test, and statistical significance is displayed as ****P < 0.0001
