Models were derived from binary logistic regression analysis. P for trend was calculated using binary logistic analysis to determine whether there was a trend when PLR was included as a grouping variable in the model (Quartile 1–4 or Quintile1-5). When PLR was included as a grouping variable in the model, P values were calculated using binary logistic analysis to determine whether there was a relationship between PLR quartiles (quintiles) and in-hospital mortality with Quartile1 (Quintile 1) serving as the reference group. When PLR was included as a continuous variable in the model, P values were calculated using binary logistic analysis to determine whether there was a relationship between PLR and in-hospital mortality. Model 1: unadjusted. Model 2: adjusted for age, gender, ethnicity. Model 3: adjusted for age, gender, ethnicity, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean blood pressure, heart rate, body mass index, respiration, coronary artery disease, acute coronary syndrome, congestive heart failure, NSTEMI, cardiac arrest, arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias, atrioventricular block, respiratory failure, stroke, malignancy, cardiomyopathy, hypertension, diabetes, white blood cell, red blood cell, hematocrit, blood nitrogen urea, creatinine, sodium, potassium, oral anticoagulants, ACEI/ARB, beta-blockers, statin, transfusion, NLR, APS and APACHE IV.
