Relationship between ISS and days in hospital (LOS), shown separately for patients who did (solid line) and did not (dashed line) have surgery. Data are shown on linear scale; the regression model was fit with both variables log-transformed to meet assumptions of the models, as reflected in the lines and the equations: Surgery: log10(LOS) = 0.36 + 0.51*log10(ISS); No surgery: log10(LOS) = − 0.09 + 0.53*log10(ISS)
