Risk of symptomatic disease and wheelchair use over time in dysferlinopathy. Graphs show the probability of remaining event free during the time under study using Cox proportional hazards regression. Events are the onset of symptoms (A), the first time a wheelchair is used (B) and the need to use a wheelchair full time (C). Survival probabilities significantly different from exercise group 0 are marked with an asterisk (*). For first-time wheelchair use (B), this graph shows the results excluding those patients over 50 years of age at the screening visit as including these patients led to a violation of the proportional hazards assumption.
