Adjusted associations between 25(OH)D groups and HANOD were estimated by multivariable logistic regression models with the inclusion of covariate terms considered to plausibly associate with both 25(OH)D concentrations and HANOD. Adjusted estimates adjusted for age, sex, race (non-white v. white), patient type (medical v. surgical) and Deyo–Charlson index.
