Mortality by lactate level.
Risk of death at 3 days, 30 days, and 1 year, by level of lactate (in mmol/L), grouped as follows: 0 to 0.9, 1 to 1.9, 2 to 2.9, 3 to 3.9, 4 to 5.9, 6 to 9.9, and ⩾10. Values indicate the mean risk of death for all admitted patients during the study period with lactate levels drawn (and 95% confidence intervals).
