The estimated value represented is actually prediction accuracy defined by C-statistics.

Missing EMR Characteristic: Total Cholesterol

时间窗: Up to 20 months

The missing EMR characteristic total cholesterol defined as value in 6 months prior to and including index date. The associations between claims-based covariates and missingness on EMR characteristics were investigated by estimating a logistic regression model (and multinomial logistic regression, depending on the number of categories for the EMR characteristic) for each EMR characteristic where an indicator for missing the EMR characteristic total cholesterol was the dependent variable and all claims-based covariates were included as independent variables. The estimated value represented is actually prediction accuracy defined by C-statistics.

Binary EMR Characteristic: Nephropathy

时间窗: Upto 20 months

The missing EMR characteristic nephropathy defined as participants with any note of diabetic nephropathy. The associations between claims-based covariates and missingness on EMR characteristics were investigated by estimating a logistic regression model (and multinomial logistic regression, depending on the number of categories for the EMR characteristic) for each EMR characteristic where an indicator for missing the EMR characteristic nephropathy was the dependent variable and all claims-based covariates were included as independent variables. The estimated value represented is actually prediction accuracy defined by C-statistics.

Missing EMR Characteristic: Systolic BP (Blood Pressure)

时间窗: Up to 20 months

The missing EMR characteristic systolic BP defined as value in 6 months prior to and including index date. The associations between claims-based covariates and missingness on EMR characteristics were investigated by estimating a logistic regression model (and multinomial logistic regression, depending on the number of categories for the EMR characteristic) for each EMR characteristic where an indicator for missing the EMR characteristic systolic BP was the dependent variable and all claims-based covariates were included as independent variables. The estimated value represented is actually prediction accuracy defined by C-statistics.

Binary EMR Characteristic: Neuropathy

时间窗: Up to 20 months

The missing EMR characteristic neuropathy defined as participants with any note of diabetic neuropathy. The associations between claims-based covariates and missingness on EMR characteristics were investigated by estimating a logistic regression model (and multinomial logistic regression, depending on the number of categories for the EMR characteristic) for each EMR characteristic where an indicator for missing the EMR characteristic neuropathy was the dependent variable and all claims-based covariates were included as independent variables. The estimated value represented is actually prediction accuracy defined by C-statistics.
