Multiple linear stepwise regression model analyzing independent predictors of the change in DBP concentration (n = 260)a
| Variable | β coefficient | P value |
|---|---|---|
| Albumin | 0.21 | <.001 |
| IL-6 | −0.19 | <.001 |
| Total 25OHD | 0.18 | .004 |
| Model R2 = 0.17 |
Abbreviation: DBP, vitamin D binding protein; IL-6, interleukin-6; 25OHD, 25-hydroxyvitamin D.
a Model includes independent predictors (age, BMI, and the change in total 25OHD, albumin, iPTH, and IL-6). Only significant predictors are included in the table.
