Note: Displayed numbers are estimated regression coefficients, standard errors in parentheses, and P values in brackets. The main effect terms assess the association with baseline muscle attenuation, while the linear trend terms (by interaction with time) assess the association with linear longitudinal change rate of muscle attenuation.

Analyses with smoking quit time as primary predictor were performed among those who had quit smoking at baseline.

Model 1: Unadjusted

Model 2: Adjusted for age, race, education level, and marital status

Model 3:Model 2 + Diagnostic history of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and COPD

Model 4: Model 3 + Body mass index

Model 5: Model 4 + Pack-year

Model 6: Model 5 + Percent emphysema
