Table 3. Multiple logistic regression analysis determining factors associated with good glycemic control (n = 128).
Predictor variables | Odds ratioa | 95% Confidence interval | P‐value |
---|---|---|---|
Age group (per year) | 1.033 | 1.008 –1.059 | 0.008* |
Duration of diabetes mellitus (years) | 0.948 | 0.909 – 0.989 | 0.012* |
Adherence status | 0.706 | 0.466 –1.070 | 0.101 |
Drug utilization patternb | |||
Monotherapy | 4.797 | 1.992 –11.552 | <0.0001* |
Combination of oral antidiabetics | 2.334 | 1.018 –5.353 | 0.045* |
*P < 0.05. The final model was tested for goodness‐of‐fit by Hosmer–Lemeshow test, classification table and area under the receiver operating characteristics curve. The dependent variable was good glycemic control; Yes (1), No (0). aOdds ratio was the adjusted odds ratio when other predictor variables were controlled. bReference group: a combination of insulin and oral antidiabetics.
