Results of OLS estimation: Association of adherence and VAS-AL

N = 116 patients VAS-AL VAS-AL (adherent in presence of side effects)
3-year adherence Estimate SE Pr > |t| Estimate SE Pr > |t|
Adherence to medication 0.21 0.14 0.1263 0.40 0.18 0.0270
Adherence to recommendations −0.06 0.10 0.5159 −0.08 0.10 0.4033

All results are controlled for baseline variables (BMI, NYHA, Age, gender, number of comorbidities) and stressful event in follow-up
