Data are presented as the number of subjects in each group with percentages given in parentheses or mean with standard deviation given in parentheses. Chi-square test, * Fisher-exact test and † Mann-Whitney U-test comparing subjects with and without death. & Urbanization level was categorized according to the population density of the residential area into 4 levels, with Level 1 the most urbanized and Level 4 the least urbanized. ‡ Other occupations included primarily retired, unemployed, or low income populations.
