Multivariable Analysis Evaluating the Association between GDF-15 and Echocardiographic variables in hypertensive patients.

Multivariate general linear was performed, adjusted by traditional covariates age, sex, BMI, SBP, DBP, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, TG, eGFR and glucose in hypertensive patients with LVH. IVS, inter-ventricular septum; PWT, left ventricular posterior wall; EDD, end-diastolic diameter; ESD, end-systolic diameter; LVMI, left ventricular mass index. β standardized coefficients were recorded for each outcome variable. The difference is significant at P本研究针对伴左心室肥厚（left ventricular hypertrophy, LVH）的高血压患者开展多变量广义线性分析，并以年龄、性别、体质量指数（Body Mass Index, BMI）、收缩压（Systolic Blood Pressure, SBP）、舒张压（Diastolic Blood Pressure, DBP）、总胆固醇（Total Cholesterol, TC）、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇（Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol, LDL-C）、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇（High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol, HDL-C）、甘油三酯（Triglyceride, TG）、估算肾小球滤过率（estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate, eGFR）及血糖作为传统协变量进行校正。其中室间隔（inter-ventricular septum, IVS）、左心室后壁（left ventricular posterior wall, PWT）、舒张末期内径（end-diastolic diameter, EDD）、收缩末期内径（end-systolic diameter, ESD）与左心室质量指数（left ventricular mass index, LVMI）为本次分析的观测指标，本研究记录了各结局变量的标准化β系数，差异在P值水平具有统计学意义。
