    Multivariable regression analyses were performed adjusting for demographics, hospital-level characteristics, and relevant comorbidities. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that patients in category IV had a significantly higher odds of mortality compared to other BMI subgroups (OR = 1.16, 95% CI: 1.07-1.29, P-value < 0.00). The relationship between extremely low or high BMI values and CDI mortality that has been observed emphasizes the significance of taking BMI into account as a risk factor and potential prognostic indicator in CDI management.
