Note. Our recruitment protocol screened participants based on self-reported height and weight. A priori, we determined that, on the few occasions when there would be discrepancy between self-report and lab results (self-report is within target range but lab measurement indicated a score outside of the range), we would allow participation with the plan to control for BMI in our main analyses. There were 11 instances of BMI <18.5, and 19 instances of BMI >29.9.

aBMI is reported from lab measurements.
