*n = 3827, The ORs of multivariable analyses were adjusted for age, sex, and five comorbidities (diabetes mellitus, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, cancer, and dementia).

**Age was given as a categorical variable in units of 10 years, but we calculated the odds ratio of every 10 years as a continuous variable. BMI, body mass index; CKD, chronic kidney disease.
