EPOR and heart failure: Multivariable linear regression and logistic regression analysis (after adjusting for known risk factors of heart failure) revealed that anti-EPOR antibodies were independently associated with LVMI (coefficient 16.2%; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.0–35.0%, p = 0.043) and LVEF <50% (odds ratio 3.20; 95% CI 1.05–9.73, p = 0.041).
