MethodsWe conducted a multi-cohort analysis using previously collected deidentified data pooled from 16 hospital-based studies, which were conducted in six countries throughout sub-Saharan Africa from 2009 through 2019, including one previously unpublished dataset (Kitovu Hospital, Masaka, Uganda)(Table 1)(6). Variables in the pooled dataset included: admission age, sex, temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, oxygen saturation, Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score, and HIV serostatus. The pooled dataset did not include causes of infection for all participants. We defined SRD according to WHO criteria with the exception of the exclusion of heart failure. We excluded patients younger than 14 years of age. We imputed missing data using multiple imputation with chained equations with 10 iterations (7). We did not impute sex, HIV serostatus, or mortality. We used Stata 13.0 (Stata) and SAS Version 9.4 (SAS Institute) for all analyses.
