Adjusted for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and baseline performance on the respective dependent variable.

Adjusted or age, sex, BMI, baseline performance on the respective dependent variable, comorbidity index, Mini-Mental State Examination score, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale score, and smoking (pack-years), although smoking was dropped in model 2 for SPPB score.
