  1. Note: * Shows significance. Variables with a p-value ≤ 0.25 in the bivariate analysis (COR) were considered candidates for multivariable logistic regression. In the multivariable model, statistical significance was defined as a p-value ≤ 0.05 for the adjusted odds ratio (AOR). AOR: Adjusted odds ratio; COR: Crude odds ratio; C. I: Confidence interval
