Table 2.

Correlation analysis between drug administration and patient outcome with feature selection using Logistic Regression with Lasso algorithm, and considering all weeks and all age groups. The table displays the 10 prescribed drugs mostly associated with death (the higher the coefficient, the more correlated the drug is with patient death), and 10 drugs most associated with patient discharge alive (the lower the coefficient, the more correlated the drug is with patient discharge)
