Outcome | Unadjusted Spearman’s correlation | Adjusted Spearman’s partial correlation | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
ρ | P | ρ | P | |
Dose of rehabilitation – FAC | 0.48 | 0.011 | 0.46 | 0.027 |
Dose of rehabilitation – BBS | 0.56 | 0.003 | 0.50 | 0.019 |
ρ: Spearman’s rank correlation coefficients; adjusted Spearman’s partial correlation analysis used age, sex, Charlson comorbidity index, WHO ordinal scale as control factors.
