There are highly significant differences between the ID and non-ID groups:
For sex: P< 0.001; Rao-Scott χ2 adjusted for GP cluster effect (RS-χ2) 28.7; 1 df.
For age-group: P<0.001; RS-χ2 186.6; 4 df.
Encounters with missing age data excluded from above table: ID 11/701; non-ID 8058/978 699.
CI = confidence intervals. ID = intellectual disability.
