Variables Hazard Ratio (95% CI)

MCI subtypes
  Cognitively unimpaired 1 0.34 1 <.01
  Non-amnestic 1.12 (0.78–1.44) 0.71 1.19 (1.05–1.36) <.01
  Amnestic-single domain 1.06 (0.76–1.48) <.01 1.31 (1.10–1.56) <0.001
  Amnestic-multiple domain 1.59 (1.13–2.24) 1.67 (1.38–2.02)

Age 1.07 (1.05–1.09) <0.001 1.09 (1.08–1.10) <0.001

Gender

  Men 2.70 (2.20–3.32) 2.20 (1.97–2.45)

Education
  ≥ Primary studies 1 <.05 1 0.72
  Little or no formal education (≤ 5 years) 0.82 (0.68–0.99) 0.98 (0.88–1.08)

Comorbidity Index * 1.17 (1.11–1.23) <0.01 1.13 (1.10–1.16) <0.001

A hazard ratio of less than 1.00 represents a decreased likelihood of death, whereas a hazard ratio greater than 1.00 represents an increased likelihood of death.

This group served as the reference category.

*

Hazard ratio for each disease included (additive effect for each disease).

CI = Interval of Confidence. MCI = Mild Cognitive Impairment.
