Multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for survey year, age, race/ethnicity, education, poverty, geographic region, and health insurance, smoking status, heavy alcohol use, obesity, and personal history of any skin cancer. Women in OSR were used as the reference group.
Adjusted p < 0.05; p values in multivariable models adjusted for multiple comparisons with 10 outcomes using the Benjamini–Hochberg procedure.
