  1. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was adopted for the analysis.
  2. Mortality rates of participants with each psychiatric diagnosis or physical complication were compared with those of patients unaffected by any disease.
  3. HR: hazard ratio, CI: confidence interval.
  4. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.005, ***p < 0.001.
