The effect of high-dose vitamin D supplementation on hepcidin-25 and erythropoiesis in patients with chronic kidney disease

Table 3 Multiple linear regression model with the 1-SD of hepcidin increase as dependent variable at baseline, adjusted R² = 0, 43

per 1-SD of Hepcidin	Beta (p-value)
per 1-SD increase of age	-0,13 (0,16)
gender, male vs female	-0,07 (0,48)
per 1-SD increase of CRP	0,30 (0,00)
per 1-SD increase of S-ferritin	0,48 (0,00)
per 1-SD increase of S-calcitriol	-0,19 (0,06)
per 1-SD increase of HB	-0,20 (0,06)
per 1-SD increase of e GFR	0,03 (0,78)

CRP high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, HB Hemoglobin, e GFR estimated glomerular filtration rate. Numbers in bold denotes p < 0, 05. Substituting S-ferritin for TSAT showed TSAT to associate with S-hepcidin (β = 0, 31; p = 0, 00; R² = 0, 30)
