  1. a IRR Incidence rate ratio that indicates for how much (if > 1) or less (if < 1) the risk factors affect the data obtained in survey 2 (2012) and survey 4 (2013). This is performed in respect to the reference category and LCI and UCI representing the lower and upper 95 % confidence intervals based on the total sample size of n = 6 502 individuals from 98 communities. p-value <0.10. Missing values were not significant
