Data are estimated regression coefficient (β per SD increment continuous variables, or presence vs absence for binary ones) ± standard error (SE). Sex and age were forced into all models. Additional covariates with p<0.10 retained by backward selection are reported. All continuous variables are presented per 1 standard deviation (See Table 1 for SD of variables).
