Table 3.

The odds ratio for low body weight (BMI < 18.5 kg/m2) with the increased serum level of PTH.

Per doubling of PTHa (per 68.3 pg/ml) OR 95%CI P
Model 1 1.053 1.028, 1.078 <0.0001
Model 2 1.051 1.026, 1.076 <0.0001
Model 3 1.045 1.018, 1.072 0.001
Model 4 1.041 1.009, 1.074 0.011
Model 5 1.059 1.019, 1.101 0.004

Model 1: univariate logistic regression analysis;

Model 2: adjusted for age, sex;

Model 3: adjusted for age, sex, albumin.

Model 4: adjusted for age, sex, albumin calcium, phosphorus.

Model 5: adjusted for age, sex, albumin, calcium, phosphorus, 25(OH)D, serum creatinine, pathological diagnosis.

The upper normal limit of serum PTH (68.3 pg/ml) is used as one unit to calculate the odds ratio for low body weight per doubling of serum PTH.
