Age ≥ 65 also predicted any infection (OR 3.1, p = 0.013), while low spleen volume demonstrated a trend toward significance (OR 2.2, p = 0.064).

Spleen volume < 34 mL showed a trend toward association but did not reach statistical significance (OR, 2.2; 95% CI 0.96–5.3; p = 0.064) (Table 6 ).

showed a trendno p-value reported

The relative difference between the measured and ideal splenic volumes (< −82%) showed a trend toward association with sepsis, although this was not statistically significant ( p = 0.077) (Table 5 , Fig. 4 ).
