Table 3. Adjusted linear regression coefficients and 95% confidence intervals of the association between adipokines and right ventricular structure and function.

Model 1: Adjusted for age, gender, race, height and weight. Model 2: Model 1 + education, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total & HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, current smoking status and pack years, diabetes, waist & hip circumference, glucose, and currently taking statins or hypertension medication. Model 3: Model 2 + respective LV measure. Abbreviations: RV = right ventricle, LV = left ventricle, LVEDV = left ventricular end-diastolic volume, LVESV = left ventricular end-systolic volume, LVEF = left ventricular ejection fraction, LVSV = left ventricular stroke volume.
