Table 4.

Odds of trauma according to carotid intima–media thickness (CIMT) measurements from logistic regression, unadjusted and adjusted for age, gender, and risk factors (n = 149).

  Univariate

Variable OR (95% CI) p OR (95% CI) p
All participants (n = 149)
Z RCC 1.37 (0.92–2.04) 0.119 1.69 (1.02–2.79) 0.041
Z RIC 1.68 (1.12–2.53) 0.012 2.31 (1.35–3.94) 0.002
Z LCC 1.32 (0.89–1.97) 0.169 1.83 (1.06–3.15) 0.030
Z LIC 1.46 (0.96–2.21) 0.076 1.93 (1.13–3.31) 0.017

RCC, right common carotid; RIC, right internal carotid; LCC, left common carotid; LIC, left internal carotid.

Multivariate: adjusted for age, gender, smoking, body mass index, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, glucose, and triglycerides.

Z: standardized values of variables to represent odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) per 1 standard deviation (SD) change. The OR per 1 SD increase in the corresponding CIMT variables and the 95% CI were also calculated. We estimated ORs and their 95% CIs for an SD increment of each measurement (thereby facilitating comparisons of effect sizes for individual measurements).
