  1. Mean ± SD, and significance level (P) in patients without sepsis-associated delirium (SAD) versus patients with SAD. Impaired AR (cerebrovascular autoregulation), number (n) of patients with impaired AR at day 1; APACHE II, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II; CRP, maximum level of C-reactive protein; PCT, maximum level of procalcitonin; NSE, maximum level of neuron-specific enolase; S100, maximum level of S100. *Significant result at P < 0.05, one-way analysis of variance.
