Table 2 Risk factors for death by stepwise logistic regression at different times after operation: odds ratios with P value < 0.05

	In-hospital	3 mo	1 yr	2 yr	3 yr	5 yr
Patient number	55	55	50	47	41	36
Death	9	10	15	17	18	20
Mortality rate (%)	16.4	18.2	30	36.2	43.9	55.6
Bilirubin			1.86 (1.11-3.14)	1.83 (1.05-3.20)	1.74 (1.04-2.89)	1.87 (1.02-3.42)
EuroSCORE	2.17b (1.32-3.59)	1.92b (1.19-3.09)	1.68 (1.10-2.58)	1.57 (1.04-2.37)
