Missing values for variables are not shown in this table and were excluded from analysis. See Table 1 for counts of missing values for each predictor variable.
Boldface indicates significance (p<0.05).
Percentages calculated out of row totals.
p-Values calculated using Fisher's exact test for count data (this test was chosen due to small cell sizes).
