The following changes were made through backwards elimination.
Area of living and marital status were excluded from both models due to insignificance.
Sex was not a significant predictor of the outcome in the binary part of the model and was therefore excluded.
Wealth was not a significant predictor of the outcome in the count part of the model and was therefore excluded; BMI categories were changed to BMI 18.5–25 vs not for the binary part and <25 vs not for the count part.
Physical activity categories were changed to 1–2 vs 3 for the count part.
The zero inflation (binary) part shows ORs of how variables affect a participant being in the inflated zero-hospitalisations group, then a count model is fitted to show risk ratios for the number of hospitalisations which occur if a participant could have more than 0 hospitalisations.
*Predicting if a participant had certainly 0 hospitalisations in study period.
†Number of times of hospitalisations, if participant did not have certainly 0 hospitalisations.
BMI, body mass index.
