All values are number (%).

1

All participants were ≥18 years of age.

2

In a logistic regression analysis in which head tremor was the dependent variable and age group was the independent variable, odds ratio = 1.5 (95% Confidence Interval = 1.23 – 1.73, p <0.001).

3

In a logistic regression analysis in which head tremor was the dependent variable and tremor duration group was the independent variable, odds ratio = 1.1 (95% Confidence Interval = 0.998 – 1.27, p = 0.054).
