TABLE 3.

Multivariate logistic regression of LVI (n = 11,025) (Covariates = subtype, tumor size, grade, age)

Variable Outcome
LVI
Adjusted OR (95% CI) p-value
Subtype HR-/HER2- 1.0 <.0001
HR+/HER2- 1.8 (1.6–2.1)
HR+/HER2+ 2.5 (2.0–3.0)
HR-/HER2+ 1.7 (1.4–2.1)
Tumor size (cm) * 1.8 (1.7–1.9) <.0001
Grade ** Low/intermediate 1.0 <.0001
High 2.1 (1.9–2.4)
Age 0.983 (0.980–0.987) <.0001
*

Odds of outcome occurrence with a 1 cm increase in tumor size.

**

Nuclear grade when available, otherwise histologic grade. Classic lobular histology was assigned low grade.
