Results of correlation and simple linear regression analyses for the prediction of TRPG from 4 echocardiographic indices of PH in 69 dogs where TRPG could be reliably quantified
Variable | r | 95% CI of r | R 2 | P | Regression Equation |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
RPAD index | −0.90 | −0.94 to −0.85 | 0.81 | <.0001 | TRPG = (−2.27 × RPAD index) + 121.5 |
MPA:Ao | 0.78 | 0.67–0.86 | 0.61 | <.0001 | TRPG = (146.0 × MPA:Ao)−101.5 |
AT | −0.69 | −0.80 to −0.54 | 0.48 | <.0001 | TRPG = (−1.06 × AT) + 120.5 |
AT:ET | −0.68 | −0.79 to −0.53 | 0.46 | <.0001 | TRPG = (−246.5 × AT:ET) + 137.8 |
