*Cardiac disease was considered as heart failure or ischemic heart disease.
^Mild liver disease was considered as the presence of hepatitis B surface antigen or positive HCV antibodies.

SDC, Table S2. Charlson Cormobility Index Scoring System.
Score Condition
1
Myocardial infarction (history, not ECG changes only) Congestive heart failure.
Peripheral vascular disease (includes aortic aneurysm≥6cm) Cerebrovascular disease: CVA with mild or no residua or TIA Dementia
Chronic pulmonary disease Connective tissue disease Peptic ulcer disease
Mild liver disease (without portal hypertension, includes chronic hepatitis) Diabetes without end-organ damage (excludes diet-controlled alone)
2
Hemiplegia
Moderate or severe renal disease
Diabetes with end-organ damage (retinopathy, neuropathy, nephropathy, or brittle diabetes)
Tumor without metastases (exclude if >5 y from diagnosis) Leukemia (acute or chronic)
Lymphoma
3 Moderate or severe liver disease 6 Metastatic solid tumor
AIDS (not just HIV positive)
For each decade >40 years of age, a score of 1 is added to the above score.
Abbreviations: ECG, electrocardiogram; CVA, cerebrovascular accident; TIA, transient ischemic attack; AIDS, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome; HIV, human immunodeficiency virus.
