Table 1.

Univariate logistic regression analysis identifying predictors of recurrence in patients achieving early biochemical remission. Remission was defined as cortisol nadir ≤5µg/mL by POD-10. Measures of association are represented as odds ratio with corresponding p-values. Accounting for potential confounding variables of age, gender, BMI and ethnicity, adjusted odds ratio with corresponding p-values are presented.
