Univariate and Multivariate Analysis of Predictors of the Change in HDL and LDL Cholesterol After 3 Months of Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy in the Overall Lipid Analysis Cohort (n = 246)
| Change Correlates
| |
|---|---|
| HDL Cholesterol | LDL Cholesterol |
| Baseline total cholesterol (r2 = −0.023, P = .017) | Baseline total cholesterol (r2 = −0.178, P <.001) |
| Baseline HDL cholesterola (r2 = −0.125, P < .001) | Baseline LDL cholesterola (r2 = −0.252, P < .001) |
| Baseline LDL/HDL ratio (r2 = 0.054, P < .001) | Baseline LDL/HDL ratio (r2 = −0.088, P < .001) |
| Prior tamoxifen usea (r2 = 0.123, P < .001) | |
HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein.
Independent predictors upon stepwise regression analysis.
