Notes: Self-neglect severity represents a 1-point increase on the scale of 0–45. Model A: adjusted for age, sex, race, and education. Model B: adjusted for A + cognitive function, hypertension, diabetes, stroke, cancer, thyroid disease, and coronary artery disease. Model C: adjusted for B + depressive symptomatology and social network. Katz ADL = Katz index of activities of daily living.
