METTS triage priority and the association with 90-day mortality and TNFR1 and TNFR2 in patients with diabetes

Triage priority	90-day mortality % (deceased/all)	TNFR (ng/mL (IQR))
		TNFR-1	TNFR-2
Red (most acute)	27.7% (13/47)	3561 (3924)	8555 (5277)
Orange	11.8% (11/93)	2595 (2758)	7316 (6398)
Yellow	9.9% (14/141)	2746 (2362)	6876 (5638)
Green (least acute)	20.0% (2/10)	3234 (3104)	8483 (5470)

Data are expressed as absolute risk % and median (IQR). Significance was tested using one-way ANOVA for sTNFR levels, and for 90-day mortality, a trend test was performed to analyze linearity between groups
