    Years since breast cancer diagnosis 1.21 1.00 to 1.47 .05
    Age (in years) 1.05 1.01 to 1.09 .02
    Lymphedema 0.38 0.14 to 1.05 .06
    Type of surgical treatment 1.65 0.64 to 4.25 .30

NOTE. Mammography adherence was coded as 0 = nonadherent/did not complete a subsequent mammogram within 15 months, and 1 = adherent/completed subsequent mammogram within 15 months.

*

Lymphedema was coded as 0 = no lymphedema, and 1 = patient had lymphedema.

Type of surgical treatment was coded as 0 = breast-conserving surgery, and 1 = mastectomy.

Variable was rank order transformed.
