1 Referent group. 2 Univariate frequency counts of the covariate with column percentage within parenthesis. 3 OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval estimated with a multivariable ordinal logistic regression model on complete cases (n = 27,789). The effects of the covariates are mutually adjusted. * p-value < 0.05 of a Wald test. The null hypothesis is that the non-referent odds ratios are equal to 1. |
