Categorical and continuous variables are presented as n (%) and median (interquartile ranges, IQR), respectively. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare categorical and continuous variables, respectively. BMI, body-mass-index; PCT, Procalcitonin; CRP, C-reactive protein, SOFA, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score; APACHE II, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score; MV, mechanical ventilation; LOS, length of stay.
