ICU, intensive care unit; SOT, solid organ transplant; An odds ratio < 1 indicates worse clinical outcomes for SOT recipients compared to controls. Odds ratios were calculated using proportional ordinal regression. In this sensitivity analysis, the original ordinal outcome variable (range 0 to 28) was collapsed into an ordinal categorical variable with fewer groups to ensure that the proportional odds assumption was upheld.
