Fig. 1 Paerson correlation coefficients between the ipsi- and contralateral parotid gland. Part of the correlation matrix. Strong correlations between two variables (>0.8) are colored in red. Very strong correlations within and between ipsi- and contralateral salivary glands were observed and, therefore, analyses were carried out with pairs of ipsi- and contralateral glands, to avoid multicollinearity.

Fig. 2 Average likelihood for bootstrapping technique for each number of selected variables in the multivariate logistic regression analysis for each model order. Best model performance is observed with a model order with the highest average of total likelihood of bootstrap predictions. For, respectively, xerostomia and sticky saliva the best model performance was seen with three and four selected variables.
