Diving indices analysis for gender-adjusted gCBF in the total cohort
| Criterion | Step zero† | Last step‡ | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| R | p value | R | p value | |
| Stepwise linear regression analysis was used. Adj gCBF = 4.10−0.521*age−0.0775*BMI−0.0010*DB40. | ||||
| †Step zero shows the univariate relationship (R = partial correlation) between each parameter and the tested variable; ‡in further steps the parameter with the highest partial correlation appears. The last step shows the independent correlations found. | ||||
| Adj gCBF, gCBF adjusted for gender differences; NS, non-significant correlation, p<0.05; R, partial correlations. | ||||
