APACHE II: Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II; NLR: neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio.
The OR indicates the risk of obtaining unfavorable outcome. Standard value was calculated using the semistandardization method ( standardization). Variables not listed in the table were removed from the stepwise analysis.
Significant differences are marked by () or ().
