% Fluid overload and mortality

	Early (< 72 h)		Overall (1 week)
	cFO > 10% vs < 5%		cFO > 10% vs < 5%
	OR (95% CI)	P-value	OR (95% CI)	P-value
Univariate
In-hospital mortality	4.6 (0.7, 30.7)	0.12	3.0 (0.5, 18.7)	0.29
Mortality at 1 year	9.9 (1.8, 54.7)	0.01	4.7 (0.8, 24.2)	0.1
Multivariate
In-hospital mortality	3.3 (0.5, 21.9)	0.22
Mortality at 1 year	8.6 (1.4, 51.6)	0.04

Bold values indicate statistical significance (p ≤ 0.05)

Both early cumulative fluid overload (assessed at 72 h following post-cardiac transplantation) and overall cFO (assessed at 1 week following post-cardiac transplantation) data are presented with respect to the outcome of mortality

Odds of mortality were calculated using a logistic regression model and displayed as odd ratios (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI)

Multivariable analysis adjusted for age at time of transplant and admission weight for both in-hospital mortality and mortality at 1 year
