OR: Odds Ratio; CI: Confidence Interval; AUC: Area under the curve; HR: Hazard Ratio;

Disability*: the respondent was considered as disable if he/she could not perform at least one (≥1) activity in the Katz’s Activities of Daily Living scale; Physician Visit^: yes/no (Yes: had more than four physician visits in the past year).
