Figure 4

Independent association of specific microorganism classes with hospital death risk. These plots present the adjusted hazard ratio of death in hospital (horizontal axis) for patients without blood culture testing, those with negative blood cultures, and those with bloodstream infections caused by different microorganisms (vertical axis). Estimates are provided with 95% confidence intervals and are presented for patients without immunosuppressive or neutropenia (Plot A) and for patients with immunosuppressive or neutropenia (Plot B). In both plots, adjusted hazard ratios are relative to people without blood culture testing. Microorganisms whose adjusted relative hazard is statistically distinct from patients with culture negative blood cultures are indicated in red.
