Invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) long-term mortality rates in adults, Alberta, Canada. aHRs describing illness risk comparing IPD cases versus controls after adjusting for age and Elixhauser comorbidity scores. Primary analysis: short (<30 days), intermediate (30‒90 days), and long-term (>90 days) and overall (entire time period) follow-up. Secondary analysis: IPD cases and matched controls identified <5 years ago, 5‒10 years ago, and >10 years ago. Error bars indicate 95% CIs. aHR, adjusted hazard ratio.
