  1. Relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of intensive care unit (ICU) mortality calculated with multivariable Poisson regression models with robust standard error
  2. Effects of age (years), SAPS II (reference: SAPS II simplified acute physiology score), ARDS severity (PaO2/FiO2; reference > 200), mechanical power normalized to predicted body weight (MP_PBW), mechanical power normalized to well inflated tissue (MP_well inflated tissue), mechanical power normalized to respiratory system compliance (MP_CRS), mechanical power normalized to lung gas volume (MP_lung gas volume)
