  1. Average progression rate of MD, MS, and FS using linear mixed models in the subgroups of
  2. variables. The patients were divided into two groups by the presence or absence of macular
  3. complication. Random intercepts and random slopes for each subject are adopted for
  4. analysis. The coefficient of time (years) of each model is the fixed effect of the slopes, or
  5. the average progression rate.
  6. CI, confidence interval.
