TABLE 1.
Logistic Regression Modeling Any AD as a Dependent Variable and Black Race, Age, Total Number of ADL Impairments, Depression, Other Psychotropics, Antipsychotic Use, and Total Number of Nonpsychotropic Medications as Independent Variables
| Independent Variables | OR (CI) | Wald χ2 (df) (p)a |
|---|---|---|
| Black race | 0.41 (0.24-0.70) | 10.26 (1) (0.0014) |
| Age | 0.96 (0.94-0.98) | 14.98 (1) (0.0001) |
| Total ADL impairments | 1.15 (1.05-1.26) | 10.01 (1) (0.0016) |
| Depression | 4.78 (2.65-8.60) | 27.20 (1) (<0.0001) |
| Other psychotropics use | 2.63 (1.88-3.69) | 31.85 (1) (<0.0001) |
| Antipsychotic use | 2.08 (1.29-3.36) | 9.05 (1) (0.0026) |
| Total number of nonpsychotropic medications | 1.07 (1.04-1.10) | 28.64 (1) (<0.0001) |
