borderline significantp=0.062
Among the other variables tested individually in the Cox regression, we found that: (i) the whole brain T1 hypointense lesion load was significantly associated with TTE (p=0.04, HR 1.00004, 95% CI 1.000001 to 1.00007); for every extra ml in total T1 lesion load, the time taken to reach the event was reduced by 0.5%; and (ii) there was a borderline significant association between gender and TTE (p=0.062, HR 1.62, 95% CI 0.96 to 2.73); the time taken for men to reach the event was reduced by 60%.
