aParameter values were centered on the following values, reflecting the central tendency of the patient characteristics (age of 63 years, SPD of 22.5 cm2, and LDH of 269 U/L) and no tocilizumab and/or corticosteroid use

bEstimate and estimate %RSE were given from the importance sampling step

cEstimate 95% CI was given from analysis of 500 replicate bootstrap fits, 4 of which failed with termination errors and were not included in these summaries
