a
adjusted for age and site. N=982
b
adjusted for age, site, race (white vs. nonwhite), body mass index, alcohol use, caffeine intake, smoking status, physical activity, cognitive function, history of stroke, history of diabetes, history of myocardial infarction or congestive heart failure, use of benzodiazepines, use of dopamenergics, education, apnea-hypopnea index. N=945. Bolded adjusted means ratios and 95% confidence intervals are p<0.05 compared to the reference (no RLS).
