Note: 95% CI = 95% confidence interval for estimates; MCI = mild cognitive impairment. N = 311 persons. MCI status: 1 = MCI, 0 = non-MCI. Model 1 is the model without any covariates; Model 2 included sex, age, race/ethnicity, education (years), employment, marital status, and living status as covariates.
