- Data of 105 AS patients were analyzed: 72 patients who continued versus 33 patients who discontinued their first TNF-α blocking agent because of inefficacy and/or adverse events.
- Δ0 to 3 m, change from baseline to three months. See Table 1 for other abbreviations.
- HR refers to the risk of anti-TNF-α treatment discontinuation per 1 grade or 1 point.
- * The variable was not selected during multivariate Cox regression analysis (P ≥ 0.05).
- ** The variable was not tested in multivariate Cox regression analysis because of a P-value > 0.3 in univariate analysis.
