a Data are presented as mean ± SD or percentage. Percentages were based on n = 2527 for the ≤50-year group and n = 474 for the >50-year group. Comparisons were made with a t-test or, for percentages, z-test for proportions. Shaded cells within columns that different subscripts indicate significant effects, P < .05.
