P-values, odds ratios (OR), confidence intervals (CI) and area under the curve (AUC) values refer to the categorigal variable of ‘≥ 10 two-year citations’. Random 10% selection (n = 1002), margin of error <0.01.
Bold value indicates statistically most significant finding in conjunction with the largest AUC.
