| In-hospital PPC, n (%) | 18 (2.5) | 82 (2.7) | 0.92 | 0.70 to 1.21 | 0.543 |
| In-hospital LOS (day), median (IQR) | 7 (6, 9) | 7 (5, 9) | −0.10 | −0.54 to 0.33 | 0.645 |
| Postoperative LOS (day), median (IQR) | 5 (4, 6) | 4 (3, 6) | −0.02 | −0.45 to 0.41 | 0.926 |

Values are shown as median (IQR) or number (%).
Adjusted ORs or differences with 95% CIs and P values were estimated using regression models weighted by inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW).
ARDS, acute respiratory distress syndrome; LOS, length of stay; PPC, postoperative pulmonary complications.
