Table 6. Simple linear regression parameters between joint range of motion and age for each of the joints that are known to be predominantly affected in patients with MPS II.
| Joint | All values | Pa | |
|---|---|---|---|
| N | Parameter estimate (SE) | ||
| Shoulder flexion | 108 | −0.36 (0.27) | 0.181 |
| Shoulder abduction | 117 | −0.77 (0.23) | <0.001 |
| Hip flexion, knee bent | 105 | −0.83b (0.22) | <0.001 |
| Hip extension | 96 | −0.46c (0.21) | 0.030 |
| Hip internal rotation | 78 | −0.59 (0.14) | <0.001 |
SE, standard error.
P value based on t-test for the hypothesis: parameter estimate = 0.
Parameter estimate = −0.87 (SE, 0.15) when excluding outliers.
Parameter estimate = −0.33 (SE, 0.18) when excluding the outlier.
