Sestrin2 is involved in asthma: a case–control study

Table 3 Stepwise multiple regression model of sestrin2 levels in the asthma exacerbation and controlled asthma

	Asthma during exacerbation (adjusted R² = 0.134)			Asthma when controlled (adjusted R² = 0.279)
	B (SE)	β	p value	B (SE)	β	p value
Constant	2.656 (0.334)		< 0.001*	3.096 (0.372)		< 0.001*
FEV₁% predicted	− 0.013 (0.005)	− 0.393	0.008*	− 0.021 (0.005)	− 0.543	< 0.001*

Independent variables considered: age, body mass index, FEV₁, peak expiratory flow (PEF), forced vital capacity (FVC), FEV₁/FVC ratio, smoking index
SE standard error, FEV₁ forced expiratory volume in 1 s
* Statistically significant difference
