  1. This table shows the associated odds ratios of valve surgery and 30 day postoperative mortality when adjusting for covariates for patients with first-time infective endocarditis between 1999 and 2018
  2. Odds Ratio > 1 = increased likelihood. Hazard ratio > 1 = increased rate. Reference (ref.)
