Multivariate analysis of factors associated with the diagnosis of acute mesenteric ischemia
| Logistic regression model | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| p-valuea | OR | (95% CI) | |
| Sudden onset of abdominal pain | < 0.001 | 20.2 | (6.9–59.6) |
| Morphine-requiring abdominal pain | 0.002 | 5.5 | (1.9–15.9) |
| Guarding | 0.63 | – | – |
| Organ dysfunction (total SOFA score > 2) | 0.24 | – | – |
| White blood cell count, G/L | 0.11 | – | – |
The multivariate model included all 5 variables and 129 complete cases. All other covariates were included in the model and no variable selection was performed
