*

Multivariable logistic regression model contained all of the above factors (age group, gender, geographic region, race, ethnicity, smoking status, Type I diabetes, Type II diabetes). Patients with unknown smoking status were excluded from the analyses (TED Patients (N=2870); Patients w/o TED (N=6,801,147). Bolded variables represent statistical significance (p<0.05).
