variables	Hazard Ratio	95% CI		P value
		lower	upper
Model A
HDL-C	0.322	0.218	0.815	0.010
LDL-C	0.421	0.119	0.754	0.024
H/L ratio	1.587	1.169	2.146	0.011
Model B

Model A adjust for age, gender and etiology, underlying medical conditions and severity;

Model B adjust for age, gender and etiology, underlying medical conditions, severity, APACHE II score and Ranson’s score
