Figure 3From: Bench-to-bedside review: Oxygen debt and its metabolic correlates as quantifiers of the severity of hemorrhagic and post-traumatic shockInteraction between base excess, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and mortality. (a) Linear logistic model for predicting mortality from GCS and admission extracellular base excess (BEA) for 185 patients with blunt traumatic hepatic injury (λ = - 0.21 [GCS] - 0.147 [BEAECF] + 0.285; P < 0.0001 for model). (b) Predicted versus observed mortality in linear logistic model from GCS and BEA for patients with blunt traumatic hepatic injury. ECF, extracellular fluid.
