Table 2: Crude, age- and sex-adjusted, and multivariable adjusted hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals of outcomes compared between anticoagulated AF patients with versus without a history of falls using Cox proportional hazard regression models.

^*Adjusted for age and sex. ^** Adjusted for age, sex, OAC type, baseline comorbidities and medication history with backward elimination. AF: atrial fibrillation; CI: confidence interval; HR: hazard ratio; OAC: oral anticoagulant; SE: systemic embolism.
