Adjusted estimates of stroke and heart attack symptoms recognition by cognitive impairment status

	Stroke symptom recognition
	Sudden confusion or trouble speaking	Sudden numbness or weakness of face, arm, or leg, especially on one side	Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes	Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, or loss of balance	Severe headache with no known cause	All five symptoms
	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)
Cognitive Impairment status (ref: No cognitive impairment)
Has cognitive impairment	0.85 (0.62, 1.16)	0.81 (0.59, 1.12)	0.74 (0.59, 0.93)	0.73 (0.56, 0.96)	0.71 (0.59, 0.87)	0.70 (0.58, 0.85)
	Heart attack symptom recognition
	Jaw, neck, or back pain	Feeling weak, lightheaded, or faint	Chest pain or discomfort	Pain or discomfort in arms or shoulder	Shortness of breath	All five symptoms
	Odds Ratio¹ (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)	Odds Ratio (95% Confidence Interval)
Cognitive Impairment status (ref: No cognitive impairment)
Has cognitive impairment	0.93 (0.79, 1.11)	1.03 (0.86, 1.24)	1.12 (0.85, 1.48)	0.88 (0.71, 1.10)	1.08 (0.87, 1.34)	0.88 (0.75, 1.03)

Logistic models had NHIS survey weighting applied to them and included cognitive impairment status, age, sex, race, % of poverty line, and education as covariates.
