  • Prognostic factors for both the training (n=529) and validation (n=542) are shown with their corresponding univariable and multivariable HRs with 95% CIs and p values. Univariable HRs were calculated through logistic Cox regression, and multivariable HRs were calculated through Cox regression with conditional backward elimination. Statistical signifiance indicated via bold and italics. HR, hazard ratio; NLR, neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio; PLR, platelet:lymphocyte ratio; OIS, OnCovid Inflammatory Score; mGPS, modified Glasgow Prognostic Score; PI, Prognostic Index.

  • Bold and italicized values are statistically significant (P<0.05).
