ORs computed with conditional logistic regression. Controls were matched to cases on age, year of treatment, and history of prior or current anthracycline treatment.

Odds ratios computed with conditional logistic regression, adjusted for BMI, pre-trastuzumab LVEF, stage of disease (local or metastatic), race, hypertension, calcium channel blocker treatment, and statin treatment.

Firth’s penalized maximum likelihood logistic regression was used to estimate ORs due to the low prevalence of abnormal LVEF among the controls, adjusting for case-control matching factors (age, year of treatment, history of prior or current anthracycline treatment).

§

Firth’s penalized maximum likelihood logistic regression was used to estimate the OR after adjustment for case-control matching factors, BMI, stage of disease, race, hypertension, calcium channel blocker treatment, and statin treatment.

This analysis was restricted to 41 case patients and 113 control patients who underwent an LVEF assessment at the final surveillance timepoint.
