Table 2.

Association between high trauma scores and patient status across levels of childhood urbanicity

Odds ratio 95 % CI p
Urbanicity 1 2.76 1.71–4.46 <0.001
Urbanicity 2 4.12 2.27–7.45 <0.001
Urbanicity 3 5.61 2.78–11.33 <0.001
Urbanicity 4 5.66 2.87–11.16 <0.001

The trauma variables were dichotomized a priori into high trauma and low trauma. The cutoff was defined as the 80th percentile of scores for the healthy comparison subjects

Four levels of urbanicity/population density 1 = <500 inhabitants/km2; 2 = 500–1000 inhabitants/km2; 3 = inhabitants 1000–2500/km2; 4 = 2500+/km
