Comparison of viral load (log10CN) with modified sofa score

(A) Unadjusted comparison
mSOFA quartile log10CN (median, IQR) p value (Kruskal–Wallis)
1 (m SOFA = 0) 4.6 (3.0, 7.6) 0.20
2 (mSOFA = 1) 5.7 (3.4, 7.9)
3 (mSOFA = 2–3) 5.7 (3.3, 8.2)
4 (mSOFA = 4–11) 6.2 (3.4, 8.0)
(B) Adjusted comparison#, $
Mean difference p value 95% CI
1 unit increase in mSOFA 0.01 0.92 (− 0.12, 0.13)

No pairwise comparisons performed as overall Kruskal–Wallis is not significant
