Variables Correlated Against the Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity Function

Variables correlated	Spearman's Rho	P-value
Change in FMA-UE “total” and PACES	0.82	<0.005
Change in FMA-UE “wrist-hand” and PACES	0.74	<0.01
Baseline FMA-UE and PACES	−0.43	0.21
Baseline FMA-UE and change in FMA-UE “wrist-hand”	0.12	0.46
Baseline FMA-UE and change in FMA-UE “total”	−0.46	0.19
PACES and BDI	0.65	0.3

The only significant correlation was the change in FMA-UE total scores and PACES and the change in wrist-hand only FAM-UE scores and PACES.
