Bold text indicates statistically significant findings.
a The logarithm of hospital length of stay was modeled as the outcome variable.
bThe square root of ICU length of stay was modeled as the outcome variable.
CI, confidence interval; CO, cardiac output; ICU, intensive care unit; LT, liver transplantation; MELD, Model for End-stage Liver Disease; PH, pulmonary hypertension; POPH, portopulmonary hypertension.
