| N | Repeated Hospitalization | Crude OR (95% CI) | Adjusted ORa (95% CI) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PH group | ||||
| Pulmonary embolism | 41 | 6 | 1.24 (0.47–3.26) | 1.18 (0.44–3.14) |
| Autoimmune | 183 | 29 | 1.36 (0.75–2.45) | 1.28 (0.7–2.35) |
| Congenital heart disease | 129 | 19 | 1.25 (0.65–2.4) | 1.38 (0.7–2.72) |
| COPD | 550 | 96 | 1.53 (0.94–2.49) | 1.37 (0.82–2.3) |
| Others | 189 | 23 | 1.000 | 1.000 |
COPD indicates chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; OR, odds ratio; PH, pulmonary hypertension.
