Table 3.

Association between different albumin dosage strata and 28-day mortality estimated by the MSCM

Albumin dosage* strata No. of patients Hazard ratio Lower limit of 95% CI Upper limit of 95% CI P value
≤ 0.5 g/kg 665 0.62 0.43 0.88 0.008
≤ 1.0 and > 0.5 g/kg 547 0.52 0.34 0.80 0.003
≤ 1.5 and > 1.0 g/kg 299 0.81 0.50 1.29 0.37
> 1.5 g/kg 151 0.87 0.39 1.94 0.73

*The albumin dosage was calculated on a daily basis using the formula: Albumin dosage = [amount A (mL) × concentration A + amount B (mL) × concentration B + …]/weight (kg)

CI = Confidence interval; MSCM = Marginal Structural Cox proportional hazards Model
