CI = confidence interval.

a

Models were adjusted for baseline living independently

b

The relative time to death was calculated by using parametric models in which the failure times followed a log-normal distribution.

c

Cox proportional hazards assumption of constant proportional hazards over time were not fully supported for overall follow-up in all models; therefore a hazard ratio using the Cox model is not presented.
