Covariates are listed alphabetically. All covariates are significant

Age approximate age of patient (one of 35, 45,…, 75 years), AST aspartate transaminase level, BUN blood urea nitrogen, CAD coronary artery disease, COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, CRP C-reactive protein, : indicates interaction between two covariates

Negative sign means association with decreased mortality (bold)
