From: Pinch grip strength and fine manual control in children with diplegic cerebral palsy: a cross-sectional study

		BOT-2 scores
		Fine motor precision		Fine motor integration
		r value	p value	r value	p value
Pinch grip strength (lb.)	Tip pinch	0.62	0.0001*	0.54	0.002*
	Tripod pinch	0.53	0.002*	0.29	0.11
	Key pinch	0.47	0.008*	0.35	0.053

r value Pearson correlation coefficient, p value probability value
*Correlation is significant at alpha level 0.05
