a

Represents 15 separate logistic regression models (1 for each parameter) with outcome of all‐cause readmission (top) and CHF readmission (bottom).

b

Represents 1 multivariable logistic regression model including all 15 listed parameters with outcome of all‐cause readmission (top) and CHF readmission (bottom).

c

Odds ratio for gender not estimable because there were no 30‐day CHF readmissions in female patients.
