Table 2. The odds ratios for opiate dependence according to the presence of cavum pellucidum.

Opiate dependence Controls Odds ratio a 95% CI p value
Categorical measures of CSP No. (%) of subjects
Presence of CSP 54 (83.1) 43 (64.2) 2.74 1.21 to 6.21 0.016
Presence of large CSP b 12 (18.5) 4 (6.0) 3.64 1.10 to 12.04 0.034
Quantitative measures of CSP Mean (SD) length of CSP, mm
Length of CSP 4.17 (5.39) 2.27 (2.10) 1.22 1.05 to 1.42 0.011

aValues were risks for opiate dependence in the presence of the CSP and were calculated by the logistic regression model including age and sex as covariates.

bA large CSP was defined by the criterion of ≥ 6 mm in CSP length

cValues were risks for opiate dependence with each 1-mm increase in CSP length and were calculated by the logistic regression model including age and sex as covariates

Abbreviations: CSP, cavum septum pellucidum; No., number; SD, standard deviation; CI, confidence interval
