  1. Data are presented as OR (95% CI) and P-value; # indicates that model II is significant different from model I
  2. Model I, linear analysis; model II, nonlinear analysis. LRT, Logarithmic likelihood ratio test. (P < 0.05 means model II is significantly different from model I, which indicates a nonlinear relationship). All adjusted for age, sex, cerebrovascular disease, chronic renal failure, autologous blood (≥ 500 ml), cryoprecipitate, RBCs, plasma, platelet, surgery type, Marfan syndrome, operative time
