The estimates are provided from NEDS representing ED visits with adults aged 22-64 years from the years 2006-2011; ED visits with and without ASD were matched on age and gender; OR: Odds ratios; AOR: Adjusted odds ratios; CI: Confidence Intervals.

Multivariate logistic regressions were adjusted for sex, age, NEDS year, income groups, primary payer, hospital region, hospital location, and ED event.
