Comparison of analyte results across normalization methods
Differences in Least square means (95% CI) | Increase in CF patients compared to healthy controls | Increase in CF patients compared to asthma subject | change from admission to discharge in CF patients |
---|---|---|---|
Unadjusted analyte log(pmol/ml) | 0.12 (−0.13, 0.37) | −0.08 (−0.26, 0.09) | −0.18 (−0.36, −0.01) |
UCr regression adjusted analyte log(pmol/ml) | 0.43 (0.30, 0.56) | 0.25 (0.13, 0.36 ) | −.006 (−0.09, 0.08) |
SG regression adjusted analyte log(pmol/ml) UCr & SG regression | 0.05 (−0.08, 0.18) | ---- | −0.14 (−0.23, −0.04) |
adjusted analyte log(pmol/ml) | 0.21 (0.08, 0.34) | ---- | −0.07 (−0.15, 0.01) |
