Adjusted odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) and p-values (Wald test) computed from a multivariable logistic additive regression model which includes the interaction between haloperidol and gender.—indicates that the estimated effect is non-linear and can only be described via a graph (Fig 3).
