Table 4.

Association of Plasma and Cerebrospinal Fluid Erythropoietin Levels With Mortality

EPO ORa (95% CI) P Value ORb (95% CI) P Value
Plasma EPO, mU/mL 1.74 (1.09–2.77) .02 1.69 (1.03–2.77) .04
CSF EPO, mU/mL 1.70 (.81–3.56) .16 1.73 (.80–3.74) .17

Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; CSF, cerebrospinal fluid; EPO,erythropoietin; OR, odds ratio.

a Adjusted for age and hemoglobin level; EPO levels were log-transformed (natural log).

b Adjusted for age and levels of hemoglobin, soluble P-selectin, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and Plasmodium falciparum histidine-rich protein-2; EPO levels were log-transformed (natural log).
