Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis for risk of all-cause mortality
| Model | CONUT score (per one increase) | CONUT score ≥5 | ||||
| HR | 95% CI | P value | HR | 95% CI | P value | |
| Model 1 | 1.25 | 1.14 to 1.37 | <0.001 | 2.23 | 1.37 to 3.60 | 0.001 |
| Model 2 | 1.22 | 1.13 to 1.31 | <0.001 | 2.05 | 1.14 to 1.81 | <0.001 |
| Model 3 | 1.24 | 1.13 to 1.35 | <0.001 | 2.03 | 1.26 to 3.22 | 0.003 |
Model 1=adjusted for age, sex and clinically relevant factors (ischaemic aetiology, atrial fibrillation, QRS duration >150 ms, left ventricular end-systolic volume, left ventricular ejection fraction, moderate or severe MR, estimated glomerular filtration rate, statin use and acute decompensated heart failure at admission). Model 2=adjusted for VALID–cardiac resynchronisation therapy risk score. Model 3=adjusted for age, sex and liver function parameters (total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and γ-glutamyl transferase).
