AUC = area under the receiver operating curve, OR = odds ratio, SOFA = Sequential Organ Failure Assessment.

a

Outcome variable has two levels: deceased and discharged, where discharged is served as the reference level.

b

SOFA and all components are the scores recorded within the 24 hr prior to the start of ventilation.

c

Variable SOFA category is created based on SOFA variable with the cutoffs of: < 6, ≥ 6 and < 9, ≥ 9 and < 12, and ≥ 12. In the logistic regression model, SOFA < 6 is served as the reference group.

d

Covariates include age, gender, obesity, hypertension, and diabetes.
