Odds ratios were reported; 95% CI in parentheses

Potential confounders include: age, marital status, education, social network, function, and cognitive impairment

To quantify the level of education, the CASMIN classification was used. Lubben Social Network Scale ranges from 0 to 30, with higher values reflecting more social networks and more social support; Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale was used to quantify function, ranging from 0 (worst score) to 8 (best score); Global Deterioration Scale was used to quantify cognitive impairment, ranging from 1 (best score) to 7 (worst score)
