| BMI (kg/cm2) | 1.000 (0.973–1.028) | 0.991 |
| Composite LBP intensity (0–10) | 0.981 (0.878–1.097) | 0.740 |
| Number of prior falls | 1.086 (1.053–1.120) | <0.001* |
| Number of anxiolytics | 2.320 (1.628–3.305) | <0.001* |
| Number of hip OA signs and symptoms | 1.141 (1.009–1.292) | 0.036* |
| FSST (seconds) | 0.975 (0.915–1.038) | 0.424 |
| Aberrant movements | 1.249 (1.047–1.491) | 0.014* |
