: This is a nationwide cohort study using Taiwan’s National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD), which is a routinely collected, claim-based, and anonymised electronic record database, including the entire inpatient and ambulatory healthcare services between 2006 and 2017. In the NHIRD, information about any utilisation of NHI-reimbursed healthcare services or drug prescriptions for an individual is obtained by tracing specific administrative codes and is linked by an encrypted identification code. The study protocol was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of National Health Research Institutes in Taiwan (Approval No. EC1090305-E-R2).
: This study does not involve human or animal participants, as it is an analysis of an anonymised database which has been routinely collected.
: Informed consent was waived due to the anonymous nature of NHIRD analysis.
