By using a similar model, meningitis (OR, 5.91; 95% CI, 1.47 to 23.77), admission lactate (OR, 3.20; 95% CI, 1.20 to 8.57), VEGF (OR, 5.63; 95% CI, 1.32 to 24.11), Ang-1 (OR, 0.19; 95% CI, 0.06 to 0.62), and Ang-2 (OR, 5.40; 95% CI, 1.79 to 16.30) were significantly associated with SBI (Table 5). Here, ANGPT1 is linked to infectious meningitis.
