ORs and values were calculated with logistic regression analysis. Multivariable OR was adjusted as follows: death: age, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; ARDS/ALI: sex; ICU admission: sex; and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and IMV: sex. ARDS/ALI, acute respiratory distress syndrome/acute lung injury; CI, confidence interval; Coef., logistic regression coefficient; ICU, intensive care unit; IMV, invasive mechanical ventilation; OR, odds ratio; RASi, renin-angiotensin system inhibitors.
