Crude mortality rates (MR) per 100 person-years of observation (PYO) according to percentiles of the cytokine log-z-scores, and log-linear relationships below and above the median.

Notes: The associations between the mortality rate and the log-z-scores were modeled as a V-shaped relationship (log-linear associations below and above the median, connected at the median) resulting in separate mortality rate ratios (MRR) below and above the median (Methods S1).#P-value for different MRR below and above the median.
