The Effect of Missing MMSE at Baseline (Unclassifiable Participants) on Delirium Outcomes
| OR | 95% CI | p value* | |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMSE, per point | 0.965 | (0.933–0.998) | 0.036 |
| Age, per year | 1.073 | (0.988–1.167) | 0.093 |
| Sex, women cf. men | 2.211 | (1.003–4.877) | 0.049 |
| Comorbidity score | 1.029 | (0.893–1.185) | 0.693 |
Notes: Logistic regression model showing odds of incident delirium according to baseline cognitive function, including participants with incomplete MMSE assessments, where this was imputed as lowest score (MMSE = 0). N = 492 in 237 clusters. Goodness of fit for model residuals p = 0.085 (Pearson χ2 = 444.55). *2-tailed p value used in testing the null hypothesis that the coefficient (parameter) is 0, Wald χ2 for 4 degrees of freedom = 17.97. MMSE: Mini-Mental Status Examination.
