ROC curve for neuron-specific enolase (NSE) level predict mortality (n = 6). The NSE serum level cutoff value to anticipate mortality at presentation was > 33.45 with sensitivity 66.67% and specificity 96.77%. The cutoff value of NSE serum level to predict mortality at 48 h was > 31.04 with sensitivity 66.67% and specificity 93.55%
