Table 1 Linear regression equation: partial regression coefficients, p values, root mean square errors (RMSE) and number of participants.Y= b0 + b1 x gender + b2 x weight + b3 x height + b4 x bmi + b5 X age; b0 (n/mm); b1 (n/mm)/gender, female= -1, male = +1; b2 (n/mm)/weight; b3 (n/mm)/height; b4 (n/mm)/bmi; b5 (n/mm)/age

From: Prediction of plantar soft tissue stiffness based on gender, age, bodyweight, height and body mass index
