Purpose in life with lacunar and nonlacunar infarcts

Lacunar infarcts ORs (95% CIs), p-values Nonlacunar infarcts ORs (95% CIs), p-values
Age at death 1.017 (0.979, 1.056), .389 1.009 (0.960, 1.060), .728
Male sex 1.228 (0.733, 2.059), .436 1.073 (0.545, 2.110), .839
Education 0.942 (0.863, 1.030), .189 0.987 (0.880, 1.106), .821
Purpose in life 0.502 (0.300, 0.838), .009 0.669 (0.345, 1.300), .236

The logits model the odds of more infarct pathology against less infarct pathology (that is, 1, 2 or more versus 0; and 2 or more versus 0 or 1).
