Adjusted cumulative incidence plots for mechanical ventilation, CRRT, and ICU discharge. Adjusted cumulative incidence of requiring mechanical ventilation (A) or CRRT (B) during hospital stay by group. (C) Cumulative incidence of being discharged from the ICU by group. Cumulative incidence models were created with death as a competing risk and are adjusted for age, sex, and the presence of ≥1 comorbidity status (binary, yes/no). sHR ratio >1 indicates an increased probability of an event occurring during the study period, whereas a ratio <1 indicates a decreased probability. *Statistically significant P value for a difference between groups.
