Logistic Regression—Adjusted for Age, Gender, and education—Showing Associations Between Risk Factors (independent variable) and MCR Subtypes (dependent variable)

MCR Velocity OR (95% CI), p value MCRsl OR (95% CI), p value MCRsw OR (95% CI), p value MCRslv OR (95% CI), p value MCRswv OR (95% CI), p value
Stroke 1.95 (0.5–7.4), .324 5.53 (1.7–17.6), .004 2.14 (0.5–10.3), .340 6.08 (1.7–22.0), .006 0.95 (0.1–8.9), .961
Obesity 3.00 (1.2–7.2), .015 7.61 (2.6–22.1), <.001 4.55 (1.4–14.5), .010 2.20 (0.7–6.6), .161 2.52 (0.7–9.0), .156
Depressive symptoms 2.03 (0.9–4.8), .106 5.06 (1.9–13.7), .001 3.71 (1.2–11.7), .020 2.12 (0.8–6.0), .158 3.95 (1.1–14.7), .040
Sedentariness 4.16 (1.7–10.0), .001 5.96 (2.2–16.6), .001 3.73 (1.2–11.4), .021 0.99 (0.3–3.3), .983 4.38 (1.2–16.3), .028

Notes: Boldface values indicate p values <.05. Obesity: body mass index ≥ 30; Depressive symptoms: score >5 at the 30-item Geriatric Depression Scale; Sedentariness: walking less than quarter mile or difficulty negotiating stairs.

MCR = motoric cognitive risk; MCRsl = MCR stride length; MCRslv = MCR stride length variability; MCRsw = MCR swing time; MCRswv = MCR swing time variability; OR = odds ratio.
