Table 2 Logistic regression models showing unadjusted odds ratios (with 95% confidence intervals) of predictors at different follow-ups with respect to surgery outcome with each of the predictors entered into the model separately.

From: Depressive symptoms during rehabilitation period predict poor outcome of lumbar spinal stenosis surgery: A two-year perspective
