The mean score for each measure is reported as an unadjusted (crude) and fully adjusted score. We adjusted for characteristics included in table 1: age, gender, race, comorbidity (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, coronary heart disease, stroke, cancer, dyslipidemia, anemia, and albumin level), BMI, income below poverty, education status, alcohol consumption, and smoking status.
