ADL were defined as the 10 components of the Barthel index (feeding, bathing, grooming, dressing, bowel control, bladder control, toilet use, transfers from bed to chair, mobility on level surfaces, and stairs). Malnutrition was defined as a serum albumin level of 3.0 g/dL or less, parenteral nutrition, or tube feeding at admission. Respiratory support included high-flow nasal cannula, noninvasive ventilation, and invasive mechanical ventilation. Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; BMI, body mass index; ADL, activities of daily living.
