Table 4.

Detailed results of the multivariable logistic regression model for the primary and secondary endpoints.

Factor OR 95% CI p-Value
Hyperglycemia 1.68 1.25–2.26 0.001
Age 1.01 0.99–1.02 0.069
Charlson Comorbidity Index 1.09 1.04–1.14 <0.001
Coefficient of glucose variation 0.46 0.11–2.0 0.3
Percent of glucose in range 1.01 1.0–1.01 0.02
Hypoglycemia 1.95 1.20–3.17 0.007
Indication for GC administration
Oncology 1.35 0.92–1.97 0.122
Pneumology/Infectiology 1.39 1.04–1.87 0.027
Endocrinology 1 2.42 1.46–4.02 0.001
Mean glucose 1.03 1.0–1.07 0.050
GC dose 2 0.98 0.93–1.05 0.59

For the primary endpoint in patients with hyperglycemia, detailed results for the cofactors are shown. GC: Glucocorticoids. 1 of which 92 (79%) had adrenal insufficiency or stress prophylaxis in chronic GC use. 2 mean GC dose is given as normalized GC dose in mg per prednisolone equivalent per kg per day.
