Table 5. Multivariate logistic regression analysis for %DLCO <80%.

Variables Odds Ratio 95% CI P value
%LAA 1.111 1.031–1.199 0.006
%HAA 1.614 1.202–2.169 0.002

Multivariate logistic regression analysis for %DLCO <80% was performed. The multivariate models simultaneously included %LAA and %HAA. Both %low attenuation area (%LAA) and %high attenuation area (%HAA) were significant indicators of impaired diffusion capacity (OR = 1.111, P = 0.006; OR = 1.614, P = 0.002, respectively).

%DLCO, diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide measured as percent predicted; CI, confidence interval
