  1. Odds ratios (OR), 95% confidential intervals (CI), and p values for baseline variables in multivariate logistic regression models to predict changes in HbA1c before and after the earthquake are shown. The subjects were scored as 1 if they lived in area 2 or periodically visited clinics before the quake. The OR for waist circumference was calculated corresponding to the 1-cm increase. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test was not significant (p = 0.991), indicating good fit.
