Multivariate analysis of the variables associated with SVD.
| VARIABLE | ODDS RATIO | 95% CI | P Value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lower | Upper | |||
| Age | 0.004 | 1.02 | 1.07 | 1.08 |
| Sex | 1.25 | 0.53 | 2.97 | 0.61 |
| BP non-dipper | 1.95 | 1.04 | 3.65 | 0.04 |
| NIHSS on admission | 1.15 | 1.04 | 1.28 | 0.007 |
| Prior stroke history | 3.43 | 0.83 | 14.2 | 0.09 |
| Hypertensive on admission | 2.87 | 1.45 | 5.67 | 0.002 |
| Coronary artery disease | 6.99 | 0.84 | 58.17 | 0.07 |
Results are adjusted for the factors including age, sex, history of hypertension, dipping status, admission NIHSS, prior history of stroke, coronary artery disease, and non-dippers and correlated its association with small vessel disease (SVD).
