By multivariate analysis adjusting for the case-mix, the presence of fracture-devices such as plates (odds ratio 2.1, 95% CI 1.3-3.5) was the only variable positively associated with anaerobic infection, while underlying immune suppression yielded to be formally protective (OR 0.4, 0.2-0.8 0.2-0.8
Conditional logistic regression to adjust for the matching of case subjects and control subjects was used to determine the independent effect of the principal components and the composite score on the progression of CAC.
In order to adjust for the impact of case-mix on the variation in LOS within and between hospitals, we included several case-mix variables.
