Predictors of LGE in CKD. Forest plot demonstrating the odds ratio (diamond marker) and 95% confidence intervals of all the factors which may influence the presence of late gadolinium enhancement on univariate analysis. The odds ratio (OR) is defined per 10 unit change. I.e. for age, OR given for per 10 years. Binary logistic regression was used for analysis with the dependent variable as the presence of LGE. All p values were more than 0.05 indicating there was no significant factor which predicts the presence of LGE on CMR. eGFR: Estimated glomerular filtration rate. LVEDVI: Left ventricular end diastolic volume, indexed. LVESVI: Left ventricular systolic volume, indexed. LVEF: Left ventricular ejection fraction. LVMI: Left ventricular mass index. LVH: left ventricular hypertrophy. QTc: Corrected QT interval
