Estimated frailties (random effects) for each ICU for the three outcomes. Data are from the null model without covariates. The ICUs are ordered on the X-axis according to the contributing number of patients; the circles are proportional to the magnitude of contribution of the ICU, e.g., an ICU with sqrt(Npatients) = 60 contributed 602 = 3600 admissions to the cohort. The Y-axis has a log scale. NB, nosocomial bacteremia.
