Odds Ratios (ORs) of Prevalent Frailty by Average Annual NSAID Use Among 12 101 Physicians’ Health Study Participants

Model OR of Frail vs Nonfrail* 95% CI p-Trend
Frailty determined using frailty index score ≥0.21
 0 days/year Ref <.001
 ≤12 days/year 0.91 0.80–1.03
 13–60 days/year 1.02 0.89–1.17
 >60 days/year 1.26 1.07–1.49
Frailty determined using mSOF score ≥2 (n = 12 028)
 0 days/year Ref <.001
 ≤12 days/year 1.15 0.96–1.37
 13–60 days/year 1.53 1.27–1.85
 >60 days/year 1.95 1.56–2.43

Notes: CI = confidence interval; mSOF score = modified Study of Osteoporotic Fracture score; NSAID = nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.

*All models were run after the propensity score weighting was applied.
