Table 3.

Logistic regression and prediction capability of MPI on a continuous scale and stratified by several groups of risk, taking recurrent fallers during 8 years of follow-up as the outcome.

Recurrent fallers (during follow-up)

		Recurrent fallers (%)	OR (95%CI)	p-value

MPI (x 0.1 increase)		223/885 (25.2%)	1.34 (1.22 – 1.48)	< 0.001

MPI	Low (0–0.41)	82/471 (17.4%)	ref.	< 0.001
	moderate (0.42–0.67)	112/362 (30.9%)	2.13 (1.53 – 2.94)
	severe (0.68–1.0)	29/52 (55.8%)	5.98 (3.29 – 10.86)

Recurrent fallers at one year

		Recurrent fallers at 1 year (%)	OR (95%CI)	p-value

MPI (x 0.1 increase)		49/885 (5.5%)	1.48 (1.25 – 1.76)	< 0.001

MPI	Low (0–0.41)	13/471 (2.8%)	ref.	< 0.001
	moderate (0.42–0.67)	26/362 (7.2%)	2.73 (1.38 – 5.38)
	severe (0.68–1.0)	10/52 (19.2%)	8.39 (3.47 – 20.28)
