TABLE 4.
Uni- and multivariate models for progression at 1 year and scoring of significant variables.
| Variable | Univariate |
Multivariate |
Score points | ||
| OR (95% CI) | P-value | OR (95% CI) | P-value | ||
| Age ≥70 vs. <70 years | 2.29 (0.98–5.35) | 0.055 | – | ||
| Sex (female vs. male) | 0.68 (0.29–1.61) | 0.191 | – | ||
| Traction bronchiectasis/honeycombing 1–4 vs. 0 | 3.39 (0.69–16.5) | 0.132 | 3.38 (0.67–17.3) | 0.142 | 1 |
| Traction bronchiectasis/honeycombing 5–6 vs. 0 | 9.00 (1.57–51.46) | 0.014 | 8.54 (1.43–51.2) | 0.019 | 2 |
| Reticular lung abnormalities 5–6 vs. 0–4 | 2.48 (0.97–6.37) | 0.059 | – | ||
| Blood monocyte count ≥0.65 vs. <0.65 G/L | 3.28 (1.36–7.89) | 0.008 | 3.16 (1.27–7.88) | 0.014 | 1 |
| Blood lymphocyte count ≥1.6 vs. <1.6 G/L | 1.02 (0.44–2.34) | 0.971 | – | ||
| Forced vital capacity (L) | 0.98 (0.65–1.49) | 0.933 | – | ||
| Diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide [mmol/(min × kPa)] | 0.94 (0.72–1.22) | 0.632 | – | ||
Reticular lung abnormalities score of 0 was only present in one patient, thus the scores were merged to 0–4. OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval. Bold values indicate statistically significant variables.
