Note. The estimated effects represent the multiplicative effect on the dependent variable of a 1-unit increase in the independent variables. For instance, because the variable representing PTSD and associated depressive symptoms was standardized, a 1-unit increase is equivalent to a 1-standard deviation increase, which is in turn associated with a decrease in HDL cholesterol by 30% in Model 1.
