We classified the patients into four groups according to the basic criteria of the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines as follows, underweight, < 18.5; normal, 18.5-24.99; overweight, 25-29.99; obesity, ≥ 30 kg/m, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression was performed to investigate the association of BMI with 28-day mortality adjusting for the demographic data, comorbidities, laboratory results and Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Evaluation II score.
