↵* In the table cells, the first percentage uses MRI activity as denominator, while the second percentage (in italic) uses syndesmophyte formation/growth as denominator. Statistically significant OR at the 5% level are highlighted in bold. For cases in which the cell count is 0, the OR could not be calculated and the p value of the Pearson χ2 result is provided.
