Table 4. Hepcidin, hsCRP, Il-6 and CTGF as determinants of LVM.

	Univariable model		Adding to ‘basic’ multivariable model
Determinant	B	95% CI	B	95% CI	ΔR2
Hepcidin-25 (nM)	−0.04	−0.46 to 0.38	0.04	−0.38 to 0.45	−0.003
hsCRP (mg/L)	0.22	−0.46 to 0.90	0.07	−0.43 to 0.57	−0.003
Il-6 (pg/mL)	0.03	−0.17 to 0.22	0.06	−0.13 to 0.23	−0.002
CTGF (nmol/L)	0.05	−3.92 to 4.01	0.67	−3.45 to 4.78	−0.001

The B reflects the change of total LVM (in grams) related with one unit increment of the determinant.
