Table 2. The relationship between age and IOP in each age group.
| Age group | Estimate | SE | DF | t-Value | Pr>|t| | Adjusted P-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ≤30s | −0.260 | 0.015 | 3616 | −17.25 | <0.0001 | <0.0001 |
| 40s | −0.246 | 0.007 | 14 000 | −34.26 | <0.0001 | <0.0001 |
| 50s | −0.243 | 0.008 | 11 000 | −29.89 | <0.0001 | <0.0001 |
| 60s≥ | −0.168 | 0.014 | 1698 | −11.51 | <0.0001 | <0.0001 |
Abbreviation: DF, degree of freedom.
When analyzing the relationship between age and IOP in each age group, all age groups also showed negative estimate value. In addition, patients >60s had a less steep decreasing slope of IOP with age than patients under 30s (correlation coefficient −0.260 and −0.168, respectively).
