TABLE 5.
Univariable and multivariable logistic regression to identify risk factors at enrolment associated with ultrasound‐diagnosed nephrocalcinosis in CKD cats (n = 36).
| Variables | Univariable analysis | Multivariable analysis | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OR (95% CI) | P‐value | OR (95% CI) | P‐value | |
| Total calcium (mg/dL * 10) | 1.12 (1.02‐1.28) | .01 | ||
| Ionized calcium (mg/dL * 10) | 1.15 (0.99‐1.47) | .06 | 1.27 (1.05‐1.73) | .01 |
| Phosphate (mg/dL * 10) | 1.10 (1.00‐1.26) | .04 | 1.16 (1.00‐1.43) | .05 |
| Creatinine (mg/dL * 10) | 1.12 (1.00‐1.30) | .04 | 1.29 (1.03‐1.85) | .02 |
| Albumin (g/dL * 10) | 1.46 (1.09‐2.15) | .01 | ||
| Total magnesium (mg/dL * 10) | 1.30 (1.02‐1.78) | .04 | ||
| ALT (U/L * 0.1) | 1.79 (1.12‐3.38) | .01 | 2.08 (1.04‐5.61) | .04 |
Note: Significant variables (P ≤ .05) in univariable and multivariable models are highlighted in bold.
Abbreviations: ALT, alanine transaminase; CI, confidence interval; OR, odds ratio.
