ap-values based on Chi-square or ANOVA test

bSignificant findings (p < .05) were highlighted in bold

c.p-values based on multivariate logistic regression analyses with reference group as non-Hispanic Whites. Significant findings (p < .05) were highlighted in bold. Survey years were adjusted for both univariate and multivariate analyses

dFor multivariate analyses, we controlled age group, pain, health risk behaviors, and comorbidities (see Supplementary Table) and survey years
