Results of Linear Regression Models Predicting Cardiometabolic Risk Score: LGB Participants Stratified by Sex

	Model 1: Unadjusted		Model 2: Adjusted for age, nativity, and race/ethnicity		Model 3: Adjusted for covariates in Model 2 + education and income		Model 4: Adjusted for covariates in Model 2 + alcohol consumption, smoking, and physical activity		Model 5: Adjusted for all covariates in Models 2, 3, and 4

Note. All models take into account the complex sample design and sample weights. SE = standard error. Covariates were modeled as follows: race/ethnicity (White, non-White; reference = White); nativity (born in U.S., born outside of U.S.; reference = born in U.S.); high school degree or less (yes/no; reference = no); household income (missing, <$39,999, >$40,000; reference = >$40,000); smoking status (never, previous/intermittent, regular smoker; reference = never); low physical activity (yes/no; reference = no); and past-year binge drinking (yes/no; reference = no).
