Association Between Cumulative Number of Drugs Below Classification and Regression Tree Analysis–Derived Threshold AUC and Long-term Outcome

Drug AUCs Long-Term Outcomes
Odds Ratio for Poor Outcome (95% confidence interval)
Poor, % Good, %
No drug above threshold 1 2 (…)a
Any 1 drug above threshold 13 (52) 12 (48) 7.57 (2.57–22.34)
Any 2 drugs above threshold 14 (26) 40 (74) 2.65 (0.99–7.18)
All 3 drugs above threshold 7 (12) 53 (88) Reference
Total 35 (100) 107 (100)

Abbreviation: AUC, 0–24 hour area under the concentration time curve.

a Combined with “one drug above threshold” due to small cell size.
