Multivariable analysis including VEGF, NT‐proBNP, and cTnI to identify independent predictors of TOD in cats

Variable	β	SE	P‐Value	95% CI for β
log(VEGF)	1.520	0.794	.056	0.155 to 3.389
log(cTnI)	1.526	0.970	.115	−0.150 to 3.768
log(NT‐proBNP)	−0.424	0.736	.564	−1.956 to 1.038
log(UPC)	0.428	0.802	.594	−1.076 to 2.224
(Intercept)	0.113	6.688	.987	−13.96 to 13.25

VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor; cTnI, cardiac troponin I; NT‐proBNP, N‐terminal probrain natriuretic peptide, UPC, urine protein‐to‐creatinine ratio; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; TOD, target organ damage.

No independent positive or negative predictors of ocular‐TOD were found.
