Table IV.

Multiple linear regression analysis for variables associated with heart rate.

Beta rp p-value
Diastolic blood pressure 0.172 0.170 <0.001
Glucose intolerant 0.10 0.102 0.020
Age 0.09 0.085 0.051
Sex −0.18 −0.178 <0.01
Current smoking 0.10 0.96 0.028
Omega-3 (Factor 1) 0.13 0.124 0.005

Columns show the standardized beta and the partial correlation coefficients (rp). The model dropped METs, BMI, systolic blood pressure, and factor scores 2–5. Diabetes status and smoking were treated as simple contrasts against normal glucose and never smoking.
