Multivariable logistic regression (MLR) analysis to evaluate independent effect of each biomarker on survivor status.

Test variable	Per unit	B(SE)	Odds ratio [95% CI]	p value	Number of cases
Mean IL6 (pg/mLl)	5 units	0.024 (0.011)	1.024 [1.003–1.047]	0.028	31 (NS) and 73(S)
Mean Procalcitonin (ng/mL)	0.1 units	0.001 (0.003)	0.999 [0.992–1.005]	0.744	29 (NS) and 72(S)
Mean D-dimer (ngFEU/mL)	25 units (linear)	0.062 (0.025)	1.064 [1.013–1.117]	0.012	31 (NS) and 76 (S)
	(Quadratic)	0.00014 (0.00006)	1.00 [1.00–1.00]	0.013
Mean CRP (mg/L)	1 unit	0.004 (0.010)	1.004 [0.984–1.024]	0.689	31 (NS) and 71 (S)
Mean Ferritin (ng/mL)	25 unit	0.016 (0.013)	1.02 [0.99–1.043]	0.233	29 (NS) and 70 (S)
Peak LDH (IU/L)	10 units	−0.006 (0.038)	0.994 [0.923–1.07]	0.872	25 (NS) and 66 (S)

The data has been adjusted for age, Hb, TLC, platelet count, blood urea, albumin level, fungal infection, chronic allograft dysfunction, and CAD/PVD. NS, nonsurvivor; S, survivor; IL6, interleukin 6; CRP, C-reactive protein; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase.
