Figure 2.

Forest plot of multivariable logistic regression analysis (model 2) of the association of clinical and laboratory parameters with mortality, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and presence of bacteremia at admission. Model 2: Separate variables of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score and other parameters. ^aReference levels for abnormal values (decreased or increased) are age and sex dependent. *Odds ratio (OR) and P value for decreased red blood cell distribution width (RDW), increased hemoglobin, a Glasgow coma scale (GCS) <6, and a PaO₂/FiO₂ <200 were not calculated for this model because of low numbers of patients for that group (data not shown). Two patients with body temperature <35°C were excluded for multivariable analysis because of the low number in that group. ALT, alanine aminotransferase; CCI, Charlson Comorbidity Index; CI, confidence interval; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase; MAP, mean arterial pressure; WBC, white blood cell count.
