Inter-rater reliability of TT and total length of CA (study phase; n=40)
| Continuous scale | Rater A (mm (SD)) | Rater B (mm (SD)) | Difference (mm (SD)) | P | LOA (mm) | SEM (mm) | MDC(G) (mm) | MDC(I) (mm) | ICC (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TT right | 7.18 (1.08) | 7.29 (1.09) | −0.11 (0.56) | 0.22 | −1.20; 0.98 | 0.63 | 0.28 (3.87%) | 1.75 (24.2%) | 0.87 (0.76 to 0.93) |
| TT left | 6.96 (1.26) | 7.11 (0.98) | −0.15 (0.49) | 0.07 | −1.11; 0.81 | 0.74 | 0.33 (4.69%) | 2.05 (29.1%) | 0.90 (0.82 to 0.95) |
| Total length CA | 2.81 (4.95) | 2.28 (4.16) | 0.53 (2.45) | 0.18 | −4.27; 5.34 | 2.94 | 1.29 (72.01%) | 8.15 (320.2%) | 0.85 (0.74 to 0.92) |
CA, calcification; ICC, intraclass correlation; LOA, limits of agreement; MDC(G), minimal detectable change (group level); MDC(I), minimal detectable change (individual level); TT, tendon thickness.
