  1. These variables are from the multinomial logistic regression model using SCC as the reference group. Muang district is the old town of Songkhla so it is set as the reference district
  2. aStatistically significant with p-value < 0.05. P-values from likelihood ratio test are given in the last column. LR test = likelihood ratio test
