  1. The objective variable for the multiple logistic regression analysis was whether cognitive function declined within 4 years, and the explanatory variable was whether multiple tooth loss was present. Multiple tooth loss was defined as having 0–9 remaining teeth
  2. aAdjusted for age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, cerebrovascular/cardiovascular disease, hypercholesterolemia, depressive symptoms, BMI, current smoker status, current drinker status, duration of education, and baseline MMSE score
  3. BMI body mass index, CI confidence interval, MMSE Mini-Mental State Examination, OR odds ratio, SD standard deviation
