Association Between at Least 1 Injurious Fall (time-varying variable) and Changes in MMSE After Excluding Participants Who Experienced Fall-related Brain Injuries and Fractures

	β Coefficient (95% CIs)
	n	Excluding Fall-related Brain Injuries	n	Excluding Fall-related Fractures
All	2144	−1.38 (−1.75; −1.01)**	1770	−1.27 (−1.79; −0.76)**
MMSE = 30 at baseline	877	−0.77 (−1.17; −0.38)*	765	−1.16 (−1.69; −0.63)**

Notes: The results were obtained from linear mixed models. Model adjusted for age, sex, educational level, living arrangements, history of falls, pain, number of chronic diseases, number of fall-risk-increasing drugs, number of unplanned hospitalizations in the previous 3-year period (as time-varying variable). CI = confidence interval; MMSE = Mini-Mental State Examination.
