% Reduction = percentage reduction in coefficients of LGBQ attributable to the confounder variable. Nfemale range = 948–1049 and Nmale range = 796–891. Coefficients are adjusted by age, race and ethnicity. Wald Chi-square tests were employed by constraining each direct and indirect association of sexual identity and the confounders on the outcomes to be equal across females and males. A significant wald chi square indicates that beta coefficients are significantly different between females and males
