TABLE 2.
Multilevel mixed-effects linear regression based on all available MPA AUC measurements (n = 531).
| CS effect on MPA AUC—all measurements | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| lnAUC | β ln (mg*h/L) | [95% conf. Interval] | p-value |
| Steroid-free arm | −0.051 | −0.12 to 0.02 | 0.16 |
| MMF (mg) | 0.00030 | 0.00024 to 0.00036 | <0.001 |
| TAC trough level (ng/ml) | −0.0038 | −0.011 to 0.0038 | 0.33 |
| Weight (kg) | −0.0043 | −0.0064 to −0.0021 | <0.001 |
| Time after transplantation (months) | 0.0065 | 0.0017 to 0.011 | 0.01 |
lnAUC = natural log transformation of AUC.
