Multiple linear regression analysis in which the dependent variable was disability level according to the Oswestry disability index at 3 months postpartum

Independent variables Dependent variable: Oswestry disability index at 3 months postpartum
Nonstandardized β coefficient 95% CI Adjusted R2 p value
Pain intensity VAS score 0.231 0.117–0.346 0.419 0.000
EQ5D score 1.958 4.546–3.462 0.494 0.012
TSK score 0.359 0.032–0.665 0.534 0.032

The independent variables were pain intensity (as measure on visual analog scale (VAS), health-related quality of life (HRQL as measured by EQ5D), activity level, kinesiophobia (as measured by TSK), and depressive symptoms (as measured by EPDS). The variables were measured 3 months after delivery in a consecutive sample of women (n = 49)
