Beginner's question here. I have a dataset with change in a continuous variable (LVEF) after a procedure (PCI). The dataset has the procedural done to one of two vessels (RCA and LCX- variable name rca with values of 0 and 1). I have a pre procedure LVEF variable (lvef) and I have a follow up EF variable (fu_lvef). I assessed the changes in EF in the overall sample and in both groups separately. I need to get a p value for interaction between the 2 groups (does the vessel really make a difference).
I tried multiple ways but I am not sure which one is correct
I tried (simple regression)
reg fu_lvef rca
I tried using interaction terms and get the value for this interaction term
reg fu_lvef i.rca##c.lvef
Still not satisfied I feel some outcomes that shoudl be significant are not and vice versa in other variables.
Any recommendations?
