In the case of women, those who live in more developed city(OR=1.42, 95% CI 1.1-1.76), have higher age(OR=0.17, 95% CI 0.11-0.26), higher income(OR=0.17, 95% CI 0.11-0.26), higher education(OR=0.68, CI 0.46-0.99), occupation(OR=1.54, CI 1.32-1.80) and health insurance(OR=2.68, 95% CI 1.17-6-15) were shown to have health examination more frequently insurance were shown to have health examination more frequently.
