Table 2:

SD-coefficient estimates represent β (regression line slope), interpreted as the difference in follow-up CPI associated with 1 SD higher baseline predictors when controlling for age and sex, the other baseline predictors in the model and baseline CPI. Please compare to Table 5 since the SF-12 PCS estimate was not uniform for all levels of baseline CPI.

CPI: Characteristic Pain Intensity, PCS: Physical Component Summary, MCS: Mental Component Summary, JFLS: Jaw Functional Limitation Scale, SD: Standard Deviation, CI: Confidence Interval.

Baseline Predictor	SD-Coefficient Estimates	95%CI	p-value
SF-12 PCS (SD 9.0)	−3.2	(−5.8, −0.7)	.012

SF-12 MCS (SD 9.1)	−1.2	(−3.6, 1.1)	.30

JFLS (SD 1.4)	0.4	(−2.2, 3.0)	.78
