Nodule-Based Analysis of Factors Related to VL Occurrence

Items	Multivariate Logistic Regression Model
	P value	OR	95% CI
			Lower	Higher
Tumor size*	0.005	2.417	1.303	4.482
Pseudocapsule (yes vs no)	<0.001	6.117	3.205	11.675
CalliSpheres® diameter (100–300 μm vs 300–500 μm)	0.007	3.124	1.373	7.105

Notes: *Tumor size was categorized as <3 cm=1, 3–5 cm=2, 5–10 cm=3 and ≥10 cm=4. Factors affecting VL were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression model.

Abbreviations: VL, vascular lake; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
