Associations between cytokine expression levels and clinical outcomes within COVID19 patients. (a) Forest plots representing the estimates of association for day 1 of hospital admission cytokine expression with clinical outcomes of mortality, need for intubation (ARDS), and development of acute kidney injury (AKI) among COVID-19 patients. Each box shows the estimated Hazard Ratio (HR) and each whisker represents the 95% Confidence Interval (CI) of the HR. Cox Proportional Hazard (PH) models with robust standard errors were used to compute all estimates with time 0 as day 1 of hospital admission. (b) Venn diagram showing 23 cytokines significantly associated (p < 0.05) with clinical outcomes such as mortality, ARDS, and development of AKI after pvalue adjustment for multiple comparisons.
