Cox proportional hazard models were used. Model 0, unadjusted model; Model 1, adjusted by age, gender, disease severity; Model 2, adjusted by Model 1, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, lung disease, brain disease and malignant tumors. CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; SD, standard deviation; Ref, reference; dNLR, derived neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio; NLR, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio; SII, systemic immune-inflammation index; SIRI, systemic inflammation response index; PLR, platelet to lymphocyte ratio; MLR, monocyte to lymphocyte ratio.
