adjusted model results include all variables shown in the table, except for the interaction coefficient. Adjusted models with interactions were estimated in a separate model that included all covariates (coefficients not shown).

**

results from analyses stratified by education level, with low education having technical, secondary education or lower, and high education having high school or higher. Adjusted models included the same variables described above (covariate coefficents not shown).
