GEE parameter estimates for Total Bilirubin predicting Transplant

Parameter	Estimate	Odds Ratio	p-value	95% Confidence Limits for Odds Ratio
Placebo 3-4	0.82	2.28	0.0266	0.90	5.75
NAC 3-4	0.87	2.38		0.81	6.98
Placebo 1-2	1.20	3.31		1.48	7.41
NAC 1-2*	0.00	1.00
Day 1	0.23	1.26	0.0282	1.00	1.59
Day 2	0.32	1.37		1.10	1.72
Day 3	0.18	1.20		1.00	1.44
Day 4**	0.00	1.00
Total Bilirubin	0.03	1.03	0.0227	1.00	1.07

Using NAC 1-2 as the reference group, all other groups show positive estimate values indicating higher likelihood of transplantation. Day 4 is the reference day that is then compared with the prior 3 days. The effect is greatest on Day 2 and less so for Days 1 and 3 compared to Day 4.
