Estimate and P-value are adjusted for all covariates listed in the table

P-value is the interaction p-value between HOUSES and AGE. If P<.05, it means the estimate for HOUSES is significantly modified by age <50 vs. >=50. P-values comes from a model on the full sepsis cohort, adjusted for the effects of HOUSES, age, sex, race, APACHE, and the HOUSES*age interaction.
