Note: The dependent variable is a binary variable indicating whether the respondent has a specific chronic disease (e.g. =1 if has cerebrovascular disease, 0 otherwise in in column 1). Other covariates in each column include gender, annual income, household members, occupation, age and education (and constant). ***p < 0.01, **p < 0.05, *p < 0.1. Standard errors in parentheses
