Table 4. Factors Associated with mPAP on RHC in HIV-Infected Subjects.
A. mPAP | ||

Age (per decade) | -16% (-28%, -2%), p = 0.031 | -17% (-29%, -4%), p = 0.015 |
Male vs. Female | 1% (-15%, 19%), p = 0.946 | 3% (-15%, 26%), p = 0.733 |

Other vs. Caucasian | -28% (-46%, -5%), p = 0.023 | -10% (-26%, 10%), p = 0.326 |
Stimulant IVDU (ever vs. never) | 25% (0%, 56%), p = 0.047 | 16% (-4%, 40%), p = 0.137 |
B. PAH (mPAP ≥ 25 mmHg) | ||

ET-1 (per 0.1 pg/ml increase) | 2.35 (1.07, 5.13), p = 0.033 | 2.39 (1.10, 5.20), p = 0.028 |
Age (per decade) | 0.77 (0.49, 1.20), p = 0.246 | 0.69 (0.41, 1.14), p = 0.145 |
Male vs. Female | 0.88 (0.30, 2.59), p = 0.820 | 0.96 (0.34, 2.70), p = 0.940 |
African American vs. Caucasian | 0.92 (0.36, 2.35), p = 0.856 | 1.17 (0.44, 3.11), p = 0.754 |
Latino/Other vs. Caucasian | 0.61 (0.15, 2.43), p = 0.485 | 1.05 (0.24, 4.56), p = 0.950 |
CI, confidence interval; ET-1, endothelin-1; IVDU, intravenous drug use; mPAP, mean pulmonary artery pressure; PAH, pulmonary arterial hypertension; PR, prevalence ratio; RHC, right heart catheterization.
Analysis includes the subgroup of 65 HIV-infected subjects who underwent RHC. mPAP is log-transformed; results are back-transformed to calculate estimated percentage differences in mPAP attributable to each covariate.
