Interaction Analysis

Respiratory Support Interaction Testing\n\nTests whether feeding relationships differ by respiratory support status.\n\nUnadjusted model:\n- Interaction coefficient: -0.094\n- Interaction p-value: 0.3523\n- Model R²: 0.070\n\nAdjusted model (including confounders):\n- Interaction coefficient: -0.083\n- Interaction p-value: 0.4074\n- Model R²: 0.114\n\nModel diagnostics warning: High multicollinearity detected. Residuals may not be normally distributed. \n\nStatistical conclusion: No significant interaction (p = 0.4074)
