Table V. Multivariate Cox Proportional Hazards Model for Incidence of Graft Stenosis.
In this multivariate hazards model, the lowest quartile of preoperative IgM values was significantly associated with graft stenosis requiring intervention.
Variable | Level | Hazard Ratio | Lower 95% | Upper 95% | P-value for Z statistic |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Prior Failed | Yes | 3.45 | 0.39 | 30.83 | 0.27 |
High Risk Vein Graft | Yes | 3.5 | 0.47 | 26.03 | 0.22 |
Pre-operative IgM value – quartile | Low 25% | 7.79 | 1.27 | 47.82 | 0.027 |
Log rank test, P = 0.013 for this model |
