    Snippet: Caption Figure 1 : In the matched cohort design, each bereaved older adult (case) is matched on sex and age to a single married control, without replacement. Follow-up starts at the index date, i.e. the date of spousal loss for the cases, and the matched date for the controls.

    Document: Caption Figure 1 : In the matched cohort design, each bereaved older adult (case) is matched on sex and age to a single married control, without replacement. Follow-up starts at the index date, i.e. the date of spousal loss for the cases, and the matched date for the controls. Individuals are followed until the event of interest, death, or the end of the observation period. In the cohort-crossover design, individuals serve as their own controls over time. Within-person change in risk of adverse event is calculated by comparing the event rates at baseline (T0, 547-366 days before index date) to event rates during pre-bereavement (T1, 365-184 days and T2, 183-1 days before index date) and post-bereavement periods (T3, 1-183 days and T4: 184-365 days after index date) . For each period from T1 to T4, within-person change among bereaved cases is then compared to the within-person change among married controls.
