Abbreviation: CI, confidence interval; NPI, Neuropsychiatric Inventory.
Presence/absence of symptom modeled by logistic regression, test for significance is a Wald χ2.
Adjusted models are multivariate, including control for all covariates included in Table 1.
All participants had NPI agitation at baseline due to eligibility criteria.
Adjusted model not calculated due to small number of events.
