Complete case analysis
In the 50-59 years age band, there were 41 blacks (3.8%), 41 Asian Americans (3.8%), 20 Hispanics (1.8%), and 52 people of other race groups (4.8%). In the 60-69 years age band, there were 114 blacks (4.0%), 123 Asian Americans (4.3%), 38 Hispanics (1.3%), and 77 people of other race groups (2.7%). In the 70-79 years age band, there were 80 blacks (3.4%), 89 Asian Americans (3.8%), 19 Hispanics (0.8%), and 47 people of other race groups (2.0). In the 80-89 years age band, there were 15 blacks (2.8%), 15 Asian Americans (2.8%), 4 Hispanics (0.7%), and 5 people of other race groups (0.9%).
Body mass index was computed as a predicted value for the midpoint of each age band using a linear mixed effects model of the BMI trajectories over time for all ACT participants.
