Logistic regression model for morphine dose

Parameter p-value Odds Ratio 95% Lower Bound 95% Upper Bound
Joint genotype groups 0.05
a. Met/Met & AA 0.012 0.278 0.102 0.756
b. AA but not Met/Met 0.280 0.625 0.266 1.467
c. Met/Met but not AA 0.191 0.240 0.028 2.039
Months using morphine 0.005 1.106 1.031 1.186
Time since cancer diagnosis (in months) 0.006 0.988 0.980 0.987

Morphine dose (low=≤ 117mg/24H; high>117mg/24h)

Reference variable is Neither Met/Met nor AA

Candidate variables included months using morphine, time since cancer diagnosis, age, sex, Karnofsky performance status, serum albumin, serum creatinine
