Adjusted odds ratios of filling a disease-modifying drug prescription within 5 years after the index date for immigrants versus long-term residents in the multiple sclerosis population, by socioeconomic status (SES) quintile.

Socioeconomic statusa	Adjusted odds ratio	95% confidence interval	β value	Standard error (SE)	β lower bound	β upper bound
1 (lowest income quintile, least affluent)	0.68	0.47–0.98	− 0.39	0.19	− 0.76	− 0.02
2	0.81	0.62–1.05	− 0.21	0.14	− 0.48	0.05
3	0.96	0.78–1.19	− 0.04	0.11	− 0.25	0.18
4	1.15	0.89–1.48	0.14	0.13	− 0.11	0.39
5 (highest income quintile, most affluent)	1.37	0.96–1.95	0.32	0.18	− 0.04	0.67

Derived from the complementary analysis where an interaction between SES and immigrant status was introduced.

^aSocioeconomic status is represented by neighborhood income quintiles, based on the closest available measurement to the index date.
