Multiple regression analysis with univariate predictive variables for number of complex lesions
| Variable | B (95% CI) | t | p Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neutrophil count (p = 0.1), CRP concentration (p = 0.42), LDL cholesterol (p = 0.49), left ventricular ejection fraction (p = 0.32), age (p = 0.71), systolic blood pressure (p = 0.36), and treatment with β blockers (p = 0.79) and lipid lowering drugs (p = 0.95) were not independent predictors of complex lesions. | |||
| B, increment of the number of complex lesions with every unit of the independent variable; CI, confidence interval; t, statistic of each variable in the equation. | |||
| Neopterin (log transformed) | 4.8 (1.9 to 7.7) | 3.4 | 0.002 |
| Vessel score | 0.6 (0.03 to 1.2) | 2.1 | 0.04 |
