Table 5.

Multivariate regression analysis of brain imaging-derived measurements of SVD in the Mild Stroke Study. All variables in column 1 were entered simultaneously as independent variables in the models.

	Fazekas Deep†
	OR (95% CI)	p
Male	1.23 (0.49; 3.42)	0.596
Age	2.30 (1.45; 3.65)	<0.000
VRF	0.85 (0.54; 1.33)	0.474
FDa	0.53 (0.32; 0.87)	0.012

Note. Multivariate analysis with correction for all variables in the table. OR = odds ratio; CI = confidence interval; FDa = arteriolar fractal dimension; SVD = small vessel disease. ^†Ordinal regression with Fazekas score (0–3) as dependent variable. Continuous predictors were converted to z-scores.
