Table 4. Association between social factors and clinical outcomes, by gender.

Reanalyzed the data and re-evaluate the impact of employment in patients younger than age 60. The table was also replaced.

HR (95% CI) of mortality or time to first hospitalization shown.

All models stratified by DOPPS phase and accounted for facility clustering.

Models adjusted for demographics (age, vintage) and 13 comorbidities listed in Table 1.
