Odds ratios on coronary artery calcification (CAC) associated with vitamin D deficiency (n=195)
| Coronary Artery Calcification Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Intervals) |
|
|---|---|
| Univariate | 2.54 (0.98, 6.61) |
|
| |
| Model I | 3.01 (1.03, 8.75) |
|
| |
| Model II | 3.13 (1.07, 9.15) |
|
| |
| Model III | 3.31 (1.12, 9.77) |
Odds Ratios were estimated on the outcome of coronary artery calcification (CAC) associated with vitamin D deficiency; Vitamin D deficiency was defined as 25(OH)D<20ng/mL; Reference groups are 25(OH)D ≥20ng/mL; CAC is defined as those with coronary calcium score ≥10; In the crude model, center and collection date of 25(OH)D were adjusted; in the model I, age, body mass index, smoking (pack-year), drinking (ethanol consumption), C-Reactive Protein, and triglycerides were additionally adjusted; in the model II, hypertension and diabetes were further adjusted; in the model III, marine n-3 fatty acids were further adjusted.
