  1. Two ordinal logistic regression models satisfied the proportional odds assumption at the significance level of 0.05. Although the model-fit statistic AIC was slightly smaller in the adjusted model, the likelihood ratio test based on -2LLs from the two models was non-significant, and the SC was smaller in the unadjusted model
  2. aThe unadjusted model includes only the independent variable, No. of KPPC-matched treatments
  3. bThe adjusted model adds Sex, Employment status, and Previous hospitalization due to alcohol use disorder
