Correlation of comorbidities with NIS. (A) Spearman correlation of different comorbidities with NIS. Values of Spearman’s r range from − 1.0 to + 1.0. Diamond shapes indicate the respective correlation coefficients with the NIS. coronary heart disease = CHD; history of stroke = stroke; diabetes mellitus = DM; history of joint replacement = Joint Rx; carpal tunnel syndrome = CTS; spinal canal stenosis = SCS. (B) Boxplots depicting NIS scores of patients with or without selected comorbidities. Statistics: Mann–Whitney-U test. Spinal canal stenosis: p = 0.0002; yes: n = 18; no: n = 44. Carpal tunnel syndrome: p = 0.057; yes: n = 38; no: n = 28. History of joint replacement: p = 0.0004; yes: n = 20; no: n = 36.
