Results of linear regression analyses for serum hepcidin (ng/mL) in the total population and by gender separately.

Note: Adjusted R2 Total = .595; Adjusted R2 Male = .553; Adjusted R2 Female = .586;
*P<0.001;
†P<0.05. The dependent variable hepcidin and the independent variables were log-transformed before inclusion in the models. Interpretation for these betas is as follows: 1% change in the independent variable corresponds to a beta% change in the dependent variable.
