Integrating a diabetes and hypertension case management package within primary health care: a mixed methods feasibility study in Bangladesh

Table 5 Adjusted odds ratios for associations between patient-level and facility-level variables and whether NCD patients were appropriately managed

Variable	AOR^a (95% CI); P value
Patient sex: female (vs male)	0.54 (0.19, 1.56); 0.26
Patient age	0.98 (0.93, 1.02); 0.29
Patient diagnosis: diabetes (vs HTN)	1.57 (0.41, 5.99); 0.51
Patient diagnosis: diabetes & HTN (vs HTN)	2.29 (0.37, 14.4); 0.38
UHC 2 (vs 1)	0.36 (0.09, 1.41); 0.14

^aAOR = Adjusted odds ratios, obtained from a multiple logistic regression of NCD patient appropriate management in relation to patient sex (male or female), patient age (continuous), UHC facility (1 or 2) and patient diagnosis (diabetes, hypertension or both). The AOR for age, as a continuous variable, represents the relative (multiplicative) change in the odds of the outcome for every additional year older a patient is
