Table 5 The multivariable linear regression analysis between impulsivity and biomarkers

From: Fibroblast growth factor 21 associating with serotonin and dopamine in the cerebrospinal fluid predicts impulsivity in healthy subjects

Variables

  1. Model 1: unadjusted
  2. Model 2: adjusted for age and education years
  3. Model 3: adjusted for age, education years, BMI, and pain levels
  4. **: p < 0.01; FGF, fibroblast growth factor; BIS, Barratt Impulsiveness Scale; CI, confidence interval
