Percent reduction of the protective effect of moderate alcohol intake (8–14 dr/wk in men; 4–7 dr/wk in women) on the risk of mobility limitations and mobility disability after adjustment of the basic model (age, gender, race, study site) for all potential confounders (full model), life-style related variables, diseases and health status indicators.
