Ref., reference.

a.

Without adjusting for covariates.

b.

Adjusting for baseline community management indicator.

c.

Adding other individual covariates, including age at baseline, gender, diagnose, family history of mental disorders, education attainment, occupation, economic status, ethnicity and marital status.

d.

Adding county-level covariates, including gross domestic product per capita, average travelling time to the nearest hospital, and the number of mental health hospitals.
