Logistic Regression: Demographic and Disease-Related Predictors of Cognitive Impairment in Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis and Clinically Isolated Syndrome (n = 164)^a

	Demographics + disease- related OR (95% CI)	Significance
Age	0.92 (0.80–1.06)	0.25
Race nonwhite	0.87 (0.36–2.10)	0.87
Hispanic ethnicity	2.05 (0.93–4.56)	0.08
Female	1.10 (0.52–2.35)	0.80
Parent education	1.02 (0.99–1.05)	0.06
Disease duration	1.08 (0.92–1.30)	0.35
Diagnosis RRMS or CIS	3.60 (1.07–12.36)	0.04
EDSS	1.47 (1.05–2.06)	0.03

Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; OR, odds ratio; CIS, clinically isolated syndrome; EDSS, Expanded Disability Status Scale; RRMS, relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis.

The sample (n = 164) were included in the regression based on having complete clinical data (eg, expanded disability status scale, parent education) and 9 of 11 neuropsychological tests complete on the neuropsychological battery.
