  1. Reported counts (proportions) for categorical variables and median (interquartile range) for continuous variables
  2. ARDS acute respiratory distress syndrome, ICU intensive care unit
  3. Missing data (due to missing data of each outcome measures): in-hospital mortality = 8; survivor dispositions = 0; ICU-free days = 89; ventilator-free days = 9; length of hospital stay = 8
