Factors associated with change in eQWB score from baseline in multivariable analyses

	eQWB Baseline to 6 months		eQWB Baseline to 18 months

	Estimate (95%CI)	p-value^a	Estimate (95% CI)	p-value^a
Baseline variables
Menopausal status (post) × Time	−0.012 (−0.027, 0.003)	0.11	−0.02 (−0.039, −0.0009)	0.04
Marital status (single) × Time	−0.018 (−0.034, −0.002)	0.03	−0.017 (−0.035, 0.002)	0.07

Change variables
Change in weight (per 5% decrease)	0.015 (0.009, 0.021)	<0.001	0.012 (0.006, 0.019)	<0.001
Achieving at least 70% reduction in total weekly UI frequency	−0.0003 (−0.017, 0.016)	0.97	0.009 (−0.008, 0.026)	0.28
Kcals expended per day in physical activity (per 100 kcal increase)	0.0003 (−0.0003, 0.0008)	0.35	0.0006 (−0.0001, 0.001)	0.08

eQWB = estimated Quality of Well Being; UI = urinary incontinence

See Statistical Analyses section for a description of the model and predictor selection methods. Analysis controlled for age, race, clinic site, baseline weight, baseline weekly UI frequency, baseline kcals expended per day in physical activity, menopausal status, and marital status.
