Table 4.

Results from multivariate analysis. Presenting the effect of difficulties initiating sleep, difficulties maintaining sleep, early morning awakening, non-restorative sleep and fatigue on the odds ratio (OR) for reporting CWP in the 5-year and 18-year follow-up respectively. The OR, 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) and p-value (p) are presented in model 1–3. N = 1249 entered the 5-year follow-up analyses; N = 791 entered in the 18-year follow-up analyses
