Print bold text conditionally

Hello. I am using r markdown and I have an issue in printing bold text subject to a condition. I want r to evaluate a string variable, if the variable is non-empty then the variable should be printed in bold. The final document is written in word. Here's the code that I have used:

myvar = "some string variable"

(r if (myvar != "") {myvar})

This code works fine when the string is non-empty. However, when I pass an empty string I expect no actions but the code prints a black line. I attached a screenshot of the final document, where you can see 7 black lines, one for each empty variable passed in the code.

Any idea to solve this?

Thanks!
