OR: odds ratio (exponentiated coefficient of the regression); IRR: incidence rate ratio (exponentiated coefficient of the regression); SE: standard error. Robust standard errors in parentheses. Aged 18–29, male, convicted, other origin and other type of crime are reference categories. All regressions include the total length of stay over 2011 as an exposure variable. All detainees with nervous system disorders consulted generalist practitioners and nurses, so that the corresponding indicator predicts success perfectly.
