OH3 1.973 1.095–3.558 0.067
OH5 1.568 0.893–2.754 0.117

*Independently age, sex, year of education, presence of dementia, hypertension, Parkinson's disease, depression and falls, use of calcium channel blocker, alpha blocker, diuretic and antidepressant drugs, level of hemoglobin, albumin and eGFR, basic and instrumental ADLs. ADLs: Barthel Activities of Daily Living index. eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; OH1: orthostatic hypotension within 1st min measured by head-up Tilt Table Test; OH3: orthostatic hypotension within 3rd min measured by head-up Tilt Table Test; OH5: orthostatic hypotension within the 5th min measured by head-up tilt table test.
