Results of Multivariate Regression Analysis on K and H by Reciprocal of Tb.Sp, Conn.D, SMI, and DA
| Response | Coefficients of independent parameters | p value | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BV/TV | Tb.Th | Tb.Sp−1 | Conn.D−1 | SMI−1 | DA−1 | Intercept | R 2 | ||
| ln(K) | −57.1 | 0.027 | 1563 | −2.20 | 20.00 | 7.94 | −15.32 | 74.19% | 0.001 |
| ln(H) | −9.41 | −0.01174 | 452 | 1.69 | 15.99 | −3.43 | 0.25 | 46.65% | 0.082 |
BV/TV = bone volume over total volume; Conn.D = connectivity density; DA = degree of anisotropy; SMI = structure model index; Tb.Sp = trabecular spacing; Tb.Th = trabecular thickness.
