** p < 0.01, * p < 0.05, † p < 0.10. HR: hazard ratio, 95%CI: 95% confidence interval. a Multiple imputation by chained equations was performed using relative deprivation index, relative poverty, sex, age, years of education, marital status, disease and/or impairment, self-recognition of forgetfulness, depressive symptoms (m = 20). b Sex, age, years of education, marital status, disease and/or impairment, self-recognition of forgetfulness, and depressive symptoms were controlled. c This index was assessed by counting the number of items. d Relative deprivation in combination variable was defined as respondents who fell under two and over deprivation index. Proportions of each category were as follows: No dep. & pov.: 70.1%; poverty only: 27.0%; deprivation only: 1.1%; and pov. & dep.: 1.7%. In addition, the proportion is not coincident with other tables, because it was confined to the respondents which answered the relative deprivation and poverty index.
