Table summary
This table displays the results of adjusted odds ratios relating self-reported and modelled smoking status and selected characteristics to smoking-related acute care hospitalizations. The information is grouped by selected characteristics (appearing as row headers), model a (self-reported smoking), model b (modelled smoking - optimal threshold), model c (modelled smoking - optimal threshold +/- 0.05), model d (modelled smoking - optimal threshold +/- 0.10), adjusted odds ratio , 95% confidence interval and adjusted odds ratio, calculated using from and to units of measure (appearing as column headers).
