Disease-specific composite measures for psoriatic arthritis are highly responsive to a Janus kinase inhibitor treatment that targets multiple domains of disease

Table 4 Comparison of associations of composite endpoints with MDA response across time points and studies

*P≤0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001 testing the null hypothesis that the slope coefficient is equal to 0, based on the Wald statistic from the multiple logistic regression model
N = number of patients included in the multiple logistic regression model
For a given time point and treatment group, a multiple logistic regression was performed on MDA evaluated at this time point as a dependent variable and the changes from baseline in the composite endpoints measured at the same time point as predictors. The slope coefficient for a composite endpoint from this regression model is standardized (STB) to permit comparison of the associations of these composite endpoints with the MDA response. An additional statistic, logistic pseudo partial correlation (R, range − 1 to 1), was also computed as a measure of correlation between the composite endpoints and MDA response [15]
