^*Adjusted for reporting depressed in the past 30 days, surgery type, recall of depression immediately after surgery, age, gender, employment status, and household income

M_adj = adjusted mean scores, CI_95% = 95% confidence interval

Note: A model without any interaction terms was used to estimate the adjusted mean scores
