Patients included in the subgroup analyses had all undergone a CT scan following a S100B peak. Similarly, to Table 2, three different models with different dependent variables are shown. In all analyses, log10-transformed S100B was the independent variable. Overall, Model #1–2 were significant, which was assessed using the Robust Log Rank Test and the Wald Score, since these do not assume independence of clustered observations. Since Model #3 was not significant, the results of this model are non-interpretable. S100B emanated as a significant predictor in Model #1–2. The interpretation of the HR in the case of a continuous variable, e.g., S100B, is that a one-unit increase was associated with a 4 times increased risk for any intracranial lesion, and a 7 times increased risk for ICH. CI, confidence interval; ICH, intracranial hemorrhage; HR, hazard ratio.
