  1. Continuous variables are summarized as medians and interquartile ranges (IQR). The number of cases behind each categorical variable are presented along with the percentage. For each of the variables, the number and proportion of cases with missing data are displayed within parenthesis. Two candidate predictor variables (chronic kidney disease [n = 25] and clinical score = high severity [n = 74]) were not included in the final model due to small sample sizes
