LDA Model 3 as a tool for evaluating the effects of immunosuppressive treatment on gait in GRMD dogs. Immunosuppressive treatment has beneficial effects on gait in GRMD dogs. Using Model 3, curves were generated by plotting centroids, and the associated 95% confidence intervals, corresponding to healthy, untreated GRMD, and immunosuppressant-treated GRMD dogs on F1 and F2 axes. Centroids corresponding to GRMD-immunosuppressed dogs are colour-coded to reflect their comparison with the healthy group: green, similar to healthy gait (p > 0.95); yellow, intermediate gait (0.95 > p > 0.05), red, similar to GRMD gait (p < 0.05). For a more comprehensive representation, the projection of the age in days axe on the factorial plan was calculated and added as the upper axe (see text)
