Odds ratio estimates from the final logistic model using the propensity score-matched data and modelling the likelihood of outcome (The control group is the reference group)
| A. Logistic regression results | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Modelling the likelihood of | No. of Events | OR (95% CI) | P Value AUC |
| Intubation/death | 63 | 0.40 (0.22, 0.71) | 0.0017 |
| Intubation alone* | 44 | 0.32 (0.16, 0.64) | 0.0014 |
| Death ALONE | 19 | 0.71 (0.28, 1.82) | 0.48 |
| B. Bayesian analysis results | ||
|---|---|---|
| Modelling the likelihood of | No. of Events | OR (95% HPDI) |
| Intubation/death | 63 | 0.41 (0.20, 0.67) |
| Intubation alone* | 44 | 0.33 (0.13, 0.58) |
| Death alone | 19 | 0.79 (0.20, 1.59) |
| C. Repeated analysis after the exclusion of six patients who received glucocorticoids | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Modelling the likelihood of | No. of events | OR (95% CI) | P Value AUC |
| Intubation/death | 62 | 0.38 (0.21, 0.69) | 0.0014 |
| Intubation alone* | 43 | 0.30 (0.14, 0.61) | 0.0010 |
| Death alone | 19 | 0.73 (0.29, 1.87) | 0.51 |
*With Death cases removed from the comparative group
