HOMA-AD in Assessing Insulin Resistance in Lean Noncirrhotic HCV Outpatients

Table 4

Influence of total cholesterol, age, and BMI in the results of the HOMA-IR natural logarithm in HCV and non-HCV individuals: a multiple linear regression.

	^∗∗𝐵 (CI 95%)	^***β	𝑃
HCV/non-HCV	0.39 (0.23–0.75)	0.23	0.036
Total cholesterol	0 (−0.004–0.003)	−0.009	0.925
Age	0.007 (−0.007–0.021)	0.097	0.311
BMI	0.125 (0.083–0.168)	0.496	<0.001

^∗𝑅²=0.31. Dependent quantitative variable: natural logarithm of HOMA-IR.
^∗∗𝐵: Unstandardized coefficients (95% confidence interval).
^***β: Standardized β coefficient.
