Declarations
:
: Data collection in the EICU did not required the ethic approval, since this study was retrospective and without interventions for patients. And the safe harbour standards were assessed by an independent privacy expert (Privacert, Cambridge, MA) [Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act Certification no. 1031219–2]. In this analysis, all data were anonymised and could therefore be exempted from local ethics review committee. For the external cohort, ethical approval was obtained from the Ethics Institutional Review Board of Tianjin Medical University General Hospital and informed consent was waived (No. IRB2024-YX-320-01).
