Clinical complexity index assessed in the present study. The clinical complexity index was built after a consensus meeting held in 2017, involving 25 panelists Figure 1 contains poor-quality text inside the artwork. Please do not re-use the file that we have rejected or attempt to increase its resolution and re-save. It is originally poor; therefore, increasing the resolution will not solve the quality problem. We suggest that you provide us the original format. We prefer replacement figures containing vector/editable objects rather than embedded images. Preferred file formats are eps, ai, tiff, and pdf.I apologize for the inconvenience. I have now uploaded the original pdf and pptx versions of the Figure, so you can use the best one..
