    267/267 safety concern
    • statistically significant 79 % increase in death or transfer to ICU but with a very low degree of certainty due to critical risk of bias

    PE: primary endpoint; (a): to be demonstrated a result must be statistically significant on a primary endpoint (with multiplicity adjustment if necessary);
    Study risk of bias assessed for the study primary endpoint(s) or the main endpoints in case of no formally defined primary endpoint(s).
