gait score in the longitudinal evolution
Are you using the same aggregation windows and same number of repeats for the gait score and the individual features?

Conclusions
I discussed this with Daria and Stan before. The baselines for clinical and digital measures are 6-8 weeks apart. While we know that there is some learning effect even for the gait features I would like us to consider the classical baseline. Use the first 2 weeks or maybe ignore the first week and consider the 2nd and 3rd week as your baseline and re-do these analyses. I suspect you will see a bit more movement on the FL features if you do this.
What is perhaps interesting, is that the general behaviour of non-progressors shows a slight improvement in the 25FWT
This group actually include two (or three) types of patients: - Patients who worsen <20% - Patients who are stable (no change at all - probably not that many) - Patients who improve
There are ways to separate those by using e.g. latent class trajectories modelling
DB_PROGRESSION = TRUE
Hi Vittorio, can you please confirm what are you doing here. You look at patients with >20% increase in 25FWT, and you define those as progressors. You then look at change in 25FWT (mean?) i that group and in the remaining patients (non-progressors)?
