More than 100,000 variables (anamnestic, clinical, serological, radiological and histological individual findings) of 142 patients with rheumatoid arthritis underwent a factor analysis. In the calculatory statistical course by means of information densification we established a few basic variables, called factors. The interpretation of these factors showed apart from logical and pathogenetic connection also relations which gave an impetus for further clinical research.
对142例类风湿性关节炎患者的100,000多个变量(记忆性、临床、血清学、放射学和组织学个体检查结果)进行了因子分析。在计算统计过程中,通过信息浓缩,我们确定了一些基本变量,即因子。对这些因子的解释除了显示出逻辑和发病机制联系外,还揭示了一些关系,为进一步的临床研究提供了动力。
