Table 4 Subgroup analysis of postoperative infections by surgical approach and diabetic status stratification
| Stratification factor | Variable | Subgroup | Case/control | OR (95%CI) | P value | P for interaction |
| Surgical approach | Lowest intraoperative temperature (per 1 °C decrease) | Open surgery | 5/17 | 5.231 (2.905-9.437) | 0.002 | 0.046 |
| Laparoscopic surgery | 4/19 | 2.152 (1.441-3.222) | 0.138 | |||
| Compliance score (per 1-point decrease) | Open surgery | 5/17 | 2.311 (1.564-3.421) | 0.023 | 0.118 | |
| Laparoscopic surgery | 4/19 | 1.572 (0.951-2.602) | 0.121 | |||
| Diabetes status | Lowest intraoperative temperature (per 1 °C decrease) | With diabetes | 3/10 | 6.125 (3.214-11.680) | 0.001 | 0.049 |
| Without diabetes | 6/26 | 3.012 (1.822-4.983) | 0.045 | |||
| Compliance score (per 1-point decrease) | With diabetes | 3/10 | 1.927 (0.994-3.751) | 0.047 | 0.812 | |
| Without diabetes | 6/26 | 1.785 (0.911-3.501) | 0.058 |
