We performed all statistical analyses using SPSS 21.0 (SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA) and MedCalc version 11.4.2. The receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn to calculate the area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity. We further compared the performance of the oICH score, the dICH score, and the uICH score for predicting 30-day mortality, 90-day mortality, and poor outcome using the approach described by DeLong et al. (23). The chi-squared test, Fisher's exact test, Student's t-test, or Mann–Whitney U-test were performed as appropriate. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to select independent factors associated with poor outcomes by including all variables with P ≤ 0.1 in the univariate analysis. The dICH score and the uICH score were developed using the results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis. The level of significance was set at a P-value of < 0.05.
