Models include all variables for which a hazard ratio is shown.
Early mortality hazard ratio is that associated with incident hip fracture; the late mortality hazard ratio reported in the text combines the hazard for incident hip fracture with that for those who are six or more months from hip fracture.
“History of” in a comorbidity variable indicates that information came from self-reported MCBS data.
Diabetes is indicated as present if either identified using Iezzoni codes or in the MCBS based on participant self-report of “history of diabetes.”
