A multivariate linear mixed-effects model was constructed with random intercepts and random slopes for time at the patient level. Fixed effects included time, person-mean, and within-patient components for all variables with P value <.1 in univariate analyses. The outcome was ΔECV. Predictors were mean centered to facilitate interpretation of main effects. The model explained 91% of the variance (R2 = 0.91).
CI, confidence interval; ECM, extracellular matrix; ns, not significant.
Pearson correlation reported unless otherwise indicated.
Spearman rank correlation.
