Regression analysis by compliance status
–1.6
REGRESSION
An ad hoc exploratory analysis was performed on the pooled population with outcomes evaluated by compliance status (complete vs partial compliance).Although there were limited numbers of Black and Hispanic participants, we were interested to see if there was any difference in compliance compared with the White/non-Hispanic participants. Participants who identified as Black or Hispanic (By regression analysis, only the fully compliant group demonstrated statistically significant improvement in arm girth at 60 days (change –1.7 cm, Both the partially compliant and fully compliant groups demonstrated statistically significant reductions (Improvements in the overall score for the LYMQOL-ARM questionnaire at 60-days were observed in 70% (7/10) of partially compliant and 50% (6/12) of completely compliant participants, as well as in the 1 noncompliant participant. By regression analysis, there were no significant differences within or between groups for the overall score at either time point. Only the functional domain score demonstrated a significant improvement over baseline for the fully compliant group at 60 days (change –0.38, LSIDS-A overall scores were improved at 60-days for 77.8% (7/9) of the partially compliant participants (1 participant did not complete all questionnaire items) and 91.7% (11/12) of the completely compliant participants. By regression analysis, the change from baseline to 60-day follow-up for the fully compliant group was statistically significant for the soft tissue sensation (–1.6, For the SF-36 questionnaire, there were no statistically significant differences in any domains within or between compliance groups for either follow-up time point by regression analysis.
