Table 3:

Results from the regression model on the association between vertebral endplate changes and chronic LBP, in which all patients with LBP (240) were included^{^a}

	Crude Analysis		Adjusted Analysis
	OR (95% CI)	P	OR (95% CI)^{^b}	P
Vertebral endplate changes	0.43 (0.14–1.29)	.132	0.31 (0.10–0.95)	.041

↵a The maximal model included sex, age, body mass index, lifetime smoking, highly intense physical activity, disk degeneration, and the interaction between disk degeneration and vertebral endplate changes.
↵b Adjusted by disk degeneration.
