NH, Non-Hispanic.

a

Controlling for age, sex, education, income and BMI. NR indicates that the sample size rendered the coefficients and associated standard errors unstable in the statistical analyses; thus they are not reported.

b

Due to small sample size, the results from the other Hispanic and Non-Hispanic groups were omitted.

c

Reference category.

d

P<.05.

e

P<.01.
