Unless I'm reading the report wrong, it's from a single hospital. We shouldn't be taking any lessons from such a limited dataset as there are far too many possible confounding factors that would be ameliorated in a larger dataset from more hospitals.
That's a fair point, but the literature here does say what the original comment stated, which makes the whole reading-comprehension thing excessive.
