A total of 19,554 subjects were included in the analysis. Male cases predominated (69.5%), with 49.6% aged ≥65 years. We reviewed the medical records of these subjects in national health insurance claim database to identify if they had selected eight chronic diseases resulting in high morbidity and mortality. |
