Table 4: Results for the main effect (full cohort) and effect modification (interaction) from the zero-inflated Poisson model for any morbidity (yes/no, zero-inflation model) and number of morbidities (count model) for adults with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) compared to matched adults without SMA (w/o SMA).

OR: Odds ratio; IRR: Incidence rate ratio; CI: Confidence interval. Age (continuous) was a covariate in the full cohort model; *Estimates are adjusted by age (continuous); **Too few with 0 morbidities to provide reasonable estimates. The zero-inflation model is a logistic regression model, predicting whether the individual had zero vs. non-zero (i.e.ΒΈ ≥ 1) morbidities. An OR < 1.00 indicates a lower likelihood of having zero morbidities. The count model is a Poisson regression model, predicting the number of morbidities among those with non-zero values.
