1

Model 1 includes adjustments for age, gender, race and region.

2

Model 2 includes adjustments for age, gender, race, region, waist circumference, triglycerides, hypertension, diabetes, uric acid and gallstone disease. Uric acid is defined as the mean uric acid of visit 1 and 2.

Modeled per standard deviation (SD) increase; SDs were 0.50 for (ln) Triglycerides, 14.40 for waist circumference (cm), and 1.47 for uric acid (mg/dl).,
