Figure 3

Relationship of brady/hypokinesia and flexor-rigidity to natural-killer count in core group, after adjustment for demographic characteristics and, in the case of flexor-rigidity, for T-helper count. (Standardised, as appropriate, to no background medication, age 65 years, height 1.7 m, time since diagnosis 6 years, T-helper count 1000 μl-1.) Regression line and 95% CI are shown for stride-length, free-walking-speed, the brady/hypokinesia scale and flexor-rigidity on natural-killer count. Although all values for a longitudinal outcome were used to estimate regression lines, the points shown are the average per person. (Brady/hypokinesia scale: 0 = marked impairment on video, 100 = none).
